allamanda schottii vs nerifolia?
 

Would anyone happen to know the difference between allamanda schottii
and allamanda nerifolia? I've seen both called "bush allamanda" but
haven't seen anything that says they are synonymous.

Thanks.

Hi CK,

If you scroll down here you will find:
http://www.growit.com/Plants/Growers/CN/Index2.htm

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://www.mobot.org/gardeninghelp/p....asp?code=A481

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