    Looking for how to revive a Mandevilla plant? we’ve got you covered.

    Mandevilla is a subtropical plant that grows well in the right conditions, both indoors and outdoors. 

    Mandevilla is a beautiful plant that can develop a variety of problems if not given what they need. 

    If the problem is not treated, the plant can die quickly. 

    If you pay attention and learn to identify the signs, the solutions are easy to apply. 

    Remember that to thrive, Mandevilla plants must be brought indoors when the temperature drops below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. 

    The plants love being in partial shade, but you can place them in indirect sunlight for 6 hours a day to help them grow.

    Mandevilla plants can experience problems from time to time, but that doesn’t mean it’s difficult to remedy. 

    Mandevilla plants can die due to a lack of nutrients, poor drainage, or infestation by pests such as spider mites.

    But once you know how to identify the problem, it’s very easy to fix.

    How to Revive a Mandevilla Plant?

    Mandevilla vines are beautiful and easy to grow, but they are sometimes prone to problems that can kill them. 

    Luckily, you can revive dying Mandevilla plants by tackling problems quickly. 

    Here are four tips to quickly revive your plants, depending on the underlying problem: 

    Good Soil Drainage 

    Start reviving overwatered Mandevillas by carefully examining how well the soil is draining. 

    If the moisture seems to be staying in the soil for too long, reduce the amount of water you give your vines to compensate. 

    Powdery mildew and dark spots on leaves or flowers are classic signs of overwatering or poorly draining soil. 

    Revive overwatered mandevillas by allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. 

    Follow our comprehensive Mandevilla watering guide to get your vines perfectly watered.

    Check leaves for mold as this is a sign of excessive watering. 

    Reduce the frequency with which you water your vines if you find the soil draining poorly. 

    If the soil is draining properly and you have found that you are simply watering your Mandevilla too much, making sure to allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings will help resolve this problem.

    Adequate Sunlight

    Giving Mandevilla that have been deprived of the sun the right light is an essential step in reviving your vines. 

    Make certain you offer a minimum of 6 hours of daylight.

    A Mandevilla that is slow growing or has curly leaves with brown spots needs more sun. 

    Provide at least 6 hours of light per day to Mandevillas that lack sun. 

    Even indirect light will do, as long as they get at least 6 hours a day. 

    Mandevilla does well in partial shade but will suffer if completely without light. 

    Provide Nutrient-rich Soil

    The most obvious sign that your Mandevillas are not being grown in the right type of soil is when the leaves turn yellow and fall off. 

    Create a nutrient-rich environment in the soil to revive Mandevilla plants that seem to be failing due to nutrient deficiencies. 

    Yellow leaves and leaf drops indicate that your Mandevilla needs more nutrients from the soil. 

    Revitalize dying Mandevilla vines by providing them with a neutral pH soil environment.

    Use a formula of one part construction sand and two parts potting soil to create the perfect environment. Mandevilla prefers soils with a neutral pH. 

    If the soil is too nutrient-rich or too poor, your vines will quickly suffer. 

    To create the ideal soil for your Mandevillas, mix two parts potting soil and one part building sand. 

    Plant your Mandevillas in this mix for new growth.

    Check soil acidity with this pH meter when planting your Mandevillas in the ground. 

    Nutrient deficiency and soil pH Mandevilla plants sometimes suffer from yellowing that starts on the leaves themselves and this is usually due to poor soil or pH levels that are too high. 

    To avoid this, make sure your soil pH stays between 6.7 and 7. 

    Testing your soil is easy and you should do it regularly so you know how to treat your plants to keep them alive.

    Eliminate Pests 

    Signs that pests are attacking your Mandevilla usually include a sticky, honey-like substance on the leaves, including the underside of the leaves. 

    Mist your Mandevilla plants with a vigorous spray of water from a garden hose to rid your vines of pests as soon as they are spotted. 

    Get rid of pests on your almond trees as quickly as possible with a powerful jet of a garden hose.

    Remove sticky scales with an old toothbrush.

    Use a garden hose to spray Mandevilla vines once a week in the late afternoon. 

    In severe cases, mold and mildew will cover the sticky parts and make the problem worse. 

    Rub with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol or an old toothbrush. 

    If your vines are heavily infested, cut off the bad parts.

    Once you have taken the first steps, hose down your Mandevilla vines once a week in the late afternoon. 

    This should prevent the problem from recurring.

    Final Thoughts

    Your Mandevilla plant can fail for many reasons but the good news is that you can revive dying Mandevilla plants by tackling problems quickly.

    If your vines are not planted where the soil drains well, control your watering carefully.

    Enliven sun-starved Mandevillas by giving them 6 hours of sun a day. 

    Make sure your vines are planted in soil with a neutral pH. 

    Address pest problems by removing substances left behind by insects and monitoring for future pest problems. 

    If you take the right steps to determine the cause of your Mandevilla’s problems, it will be much easier to find the solution.

    A Mandevilla plant will quickly come back to life in many cases. 

    Just make sure you determine the root cause of the problem, and remember there can be more than one. 

    Act quickly to increase your chances of saving your Mandevilla plant. 

    The sooner you address the problem, the better chance you have of reviving your vines.
