Where to place it

Place it in a warm, bright spot, protected from strong wind. It needs a pot with plenty of drainage holes and a rich, well-draining mix such as peat-based potting soil with perlite. Water when around 40–50% of the substrate has dried, and avoid stagnant water at the base. Feeding with a flowering-plant fertiliser supports stronger blooming. Protect it from frost and cold conditions.

Origin of the variety click to read

Natural group & distribution: The genus Mandevilla is native to tropical South and Central America, where many species grow in warm, bright habitats such as forest edges, with a natural climbing habit and a preference for good drainage.

Breeding background: Rio® is a cultivated Mandevilla series developed by Suntory Flowers in cooperation with nursery partners, selected for strong flowering, heat tolerance and a manageable, compact habit suitable for pots and planters.

How it differs from related types:

Flower colour & form: Large, velvety deep red flowers over glossy dark foliage.
Growth & flowering: Vigorous but manageable habit, with extended flowering through the warm season.
Resilience: Improved performance in heat and sun, but still sensitive to frost.

Propagation & stability: Cultivated Rio® selections are maintained vegetatively, so the key ornamental traits remain stable: flower colour, compact growth and strong seasonal performance.

Garden value: It is widely used in balconies, planters and summer displays thanks to its intense colour, easy care and long flowering period.

1) Substrate: Use a rich but well-draining mix, such as peat or quality potting soil with perlite, in a pot with plenty of drainage holes.

2) Watering: Water moderately when 40–50% of the substrate has dried. Avoid stagnant water around the roots.

3) Light/Temperature: Grow in sun or partial shade, ideally above 12°C. Protect from cold and strong wind.
