Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes
Container sizes indicate plant age and growing capacity rather than liquid volume equivalents. Our containers follow industry-standard nursery "trade gallon" specifications, which differ from standard liquid gallon measurements.

- Container size helps indicate plant maturity and establishment level
- Larger containers generally mean more established root systems and faster landscape establishment

Plant Profile & Growing Essentials
Reblooming, Flowering, Attracts Hummingbirds, Attracts pollinators, Heat Tolerant, and Container Friendly
Shine Bright with the Sun Parasol® White Mandevilla
- Tropical Evergreen Vine Used as an Annual in all areas
- Long Bloom Time
- Fast Growing Tropical
- Wonderful Container Plant
- Pollinator Friendly
Choose the Sun Parasol White Mandevilla (Mandevilla x 'Sunparacoho' PP22,695) for a tropical climbing evergreen vine, with showy white blossoms from Spring all the way into Fall. The shiny, dark green foliage provides a wonderfully contrasting backdrop to the bright, non-fading flowers.
Nearly twice the size of other Mandevilla flower varieties, the large and trumpet-shaped blooms of the Sun Parasol reach widths of three to five inches! This series also comes in several other color choices.
The fast-growing Sun Parasol White Mandevilla can climb 10 to 15 feet up a trellis or up climbing support out of a container, and also creates a lovely falling form out of a hanging basket.
Recommended for growing zones 10 and 11, the Sun Parasol can still be grown in cooler climates, and treated as an annual when kept outside, but can also be brought indoors during winter, as it makes a great house plant for a sunny room.
Plant in a well-drained area or container for best results, and only water as needed. The Sun Parasol prefers full to partial sun exposure for the best growth.
Deer and disease resistance are just a couple of the additional positive points for this variety. The Sun Parasol White Mandevilla is also pollinator-friendly, bringing hummingbirds and butterflies to your yard.
Order soon, so you can enjoy the gorgeous blooms all Summer!
