watering
White dipladenia (Mandevilla boliviensis) should be watered when the top inch or 2 of soil is dry. Do not let the soil become overly dry or waterlogged. During active growth, generally from spring through fall, water generously when the top 1 inch of soil is dry, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant. It is important to use lukewarm water when watering white dipladenia to avoid cold shock of the roots.
sunlight
White dipladenia (Mandevilla boliviensis) is a tropical plant that prefers sunny spots and thrives in temperatures of 60-85°F. It should be given around 6 hours of direct sunlight each day, with at least a few hours of diffused sunlight in order to thrive. If given enough light, this plant species can produce vibrant, deep green foliage with occasional blooms of creamy white petals. Direct sunlight is best between 10 am and 4pm. For optimal growth, rotate the container so that all parts of the plant have equal access to the sun's rays. If the plant receives too little light, the leaves may become pale with yellowish veins. If given too much light, the plant may become scorched and its growth may slow or stop entirely.
pruning
White dipladenia should be pruned during the spring season, as soon as the last frost has passed. Pruning should be done lightly, back to about 6-9 inches from the ground to restrict the size and shape of the plant. However, clip off any dead or damaged stems and shoots. Heavy pruning can also be done if necessary, as long as not more than 1-third of the total height of the plant is removed. To encourage strong, robust growth, trim the plant back and thin it out every 3-4 months throughout the growing season. This will ensure that it grows nicely and will appear more attractive and lush.
