Hi, Alisha! [wayey]
Don't know about your vine. (I don't know too much about anything...I hang out here because everyone is so nice to me!) [Big Grin]
Just wanted to stop here and welcome you to the forum.

Post your question down in the "Plants And Flowers" forum and more will see it. Someone will be able to help you, because there are a LOT of smart people here!

Nice to meet you!

Cindy [flower]

Hi Alisha and Welcome to The Garden Helper [wayey]
I have a mandevilla but I sure don't know how to propagate one. I am going to move this post to Plants/Flowers and see if anyone who frequents that area can answer your question.

This was taken from botany world
quote:
PROPAGATION: Stem cuttings may be taken in early spring. Choose side shoots, 2 or 3 inches long, and insert in sandy peat. They may be kept in a closed propagating case until roots form. The rooted cuttings should be potted individually in 3-inch pots. After a few days, pinch the tips of the main shoots to encourage side shoots to form. Once the side shoots grow, transfer them to 5-inch pots. They may be planted outdoors when they are well-rooted in these containers.
They like full sun!!! Not sure if they overwinter outside...you will have to look that up.
