Allamanda cathartica 'Compacta'

allamanda dwarf

Allamanda Dwarf brings the sunny yellow blooms of classic Allamanda in a smaller, more compact form. This tropical evergreen shrub stays naturally full and bushy, producing bright, trumpet-shaped flowers against glossy green foliage throughout the warmer months. It loves sunny, warm conditions and is a great choice for garden borders, landscape beds, walkways, and outdoor containers where you want plenty of tropical color without a large footprint. Easy to grow and cheerful in bloom, it’s especially well suited for smaller garden spaces.

Water deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry. More forgiving of overwatering than most plants but always ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

care

Plant in well-drained soil and water regularly until established. Fertilize three times a year in spring, summer, and fall with a quality granular fertilizer to keep blooms coming strong. Trim lightly as needed to maintain shape — no hard pruning required.
