Identifying Mandevilla: A Tropical Vine for Partial Shade

A user asks about a plant that does well in partial shade and is supposed to bloom. They provided a photo.

Expert Answer: The plant is a Mandevilla, a tropical vine. Blooming is proportional to light exposure; the lack of blooms in the photo suggests too much shade. It will grow in some sun but may not bloom heavily. It cannot withstand freezing temperatures or even temperatures in the 30s°F.
