I would appreciate advice on how to grow Mandevilla as a pot plant in a

Just hope it's a big conservatory :-) Sacha has already said plant it
in a border if you can, I concur with that. Been I while since I grew
one but IIRC they will tolerate quite hard pruning if they outgrow
their space.
Well, it was Ray using my typing fingers who said etc. etc. ;-))
But now I come to think of it, the one my fil had on the granite wall
outdoors in Jersey was quite a bossy sort of a thing! It doesn't come into
the category of 'house plant', that's for sure, so hard pruning might be
essential if it does well and thrives.
