Alamanda though perennial they love rain and are in bloom in our garden everywhere.
There are two sizes in yellow and one in purple. The smaller size is seen on our terrace and they are now in full bloom
They are climbers as well as they can be trimmed in the shape of a bush.
I am grateful that during the rainy season although many do not bloom this flower and a few others add colour to our garden.

@LadyDuck We have a few that only require a bit of water.

The purple ones are not that profuse as the yellow alamanda but yes they are a good combination

They are more like climbers and not creepers.

It's been really try here but with Helene we got a lot of rain. We'll get more once Milton hits probably. Not as much as Florida but some.

I read about Florida. They will experience something that was there a century ago I am feeling for those living there.

@JordanLader The climate has turned upside down everywhere but so far we only get rain and have not experienced any of those disasters - touch wood. Sad to know you have friends and family there.

They are cute. Neat that they can climb or be shaped into a bush.
