Hi CK,

If you scroll down here you will find:

Allamanda: Brazilian Bush Allamanda - Allamanda schotti (A. nerifolia)
'Brazilian'

Since you see A. nerifolia in parenthesis it means that the name has
been changed and they are actually the same plant.

And from this site:
http://tinyurl.com/4vkbk

"This species is synonymous with and sometimes listed for sale as A.
nerifolia or A. cathartica var. schottii."

Newt

That clears that up very nicely. Thank you very much...

CK

You are very welcome. Glad it was helpful!
