I just love these

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

Cherries Jubilee Allamanda. I didn't put them in vines because they aren't really a vine and they don't climb. They are a floppy shrub!

Bonnie, it hasn't made any seed.
Scooterbug, I guess you could say the flowers have some substance to them, they aren't fragile like morning glories. I have about 6 of these planted along the fence, funny how the color varies from plant to plant.

I need this one next year. LOL. Sure looks pretty along your fence, Susie.
Don't let Ada see it, she will really have to have it. LOL

Too late, Kell. I seen it and I want one. LOL I may have one already but it hasn't bloomed for me. I just bought it a few weeks ago.
Very pretty, Susie.

Beautiful Susie, I have the A. chocolate cherries and it was my favorite blooming plant this summer. Time for it to go back in the greenhouse now though. I can't imagine anyone not falling in love with the large flowers on this beauty.

Patricia, they had Chocolate Cherries at a nursery here but I resisted the temptation(I have no more room, the fence is full, lol)

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

I wonder why those are not out here yet. I think I really need them.

Stop bragging about your fence Susie. I am so jealous.

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

Kell, want me to start you some in the spring when they put out new growth?

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

Please and start me some fence too! LOL You are such a lucky duck, Susie. Your house and yard are what dreams are made of.

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

Yeah, they are also what blisters are made of, lol. I should never have fired my gardener!
I'll start you a cutting from the darkest one.

Mysore, India(Zone 10a)

Mine too is in bloom now. Though not exactly the same. Even the yellow doubles.

Vieques, PR(Zone 11)
