as it is getting later in the season, the mandevilla got moved into the garage and sprayed down with homemade insecticide to discourage any bugs from getting into the house…

it is sad, as it is currently blooming like crazy… and I know that most of the buds will drop off once it is in the house, sigh…

it stayed out for a few days… usually you put the plant in a bag, but clearly, this one is a bit too large for that option, so hoping it is less likely there are bugs in the garage than in the garden…

brought it in and tried a few spots in the living room before finding just the right one, hopefully…

I trimmed a considerable amount from the top and added a plant light…

I guess we will see how it does;-)…
