About Allamanda Biscuit
Allamanda Biscuit (Allamanda hybrida) is an evergreen, shrubby climber from the Apocynaceae family, also known as Pilaghanti or Hybrid Allamanda. It's a newer hybrid of the popular Brazilian allamanda climber, noted for its leathery dark-green foliage and huge trumpet-shaped flowers in a soft cream-and-blush "biscuit" shade, larger even than the original allamanda.
Growing Conditions
- Sunlight: More than 3 hours of direct sunlight; full or partial sun both work.
- Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic content.
- Water: Water when the top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry, keeping moisture near the root zone.
Planting & Placement
A vigorous climber that needs a strong support to grow on - a wall, fence, or trellis. It can also be kept bushy in a pot with regular pruning. Best planted directly in the soil for a lush, full look; can also be grown as a screening plant against boundary walls.
Care
- Fertilizer: Organic fertilizer once a month, watered in immediately after application.
- Pruning: Regular pruning keeps its shape; remove dead, infected, or damaged parts. Generally untroubled by pests, but Neem oil spray works as a first treatment if needed.
Flowering
Blooms year-round with large, showy trumpet flowers in cream and soft pink tones.
