Dipladenia gift for balcony-help!?

| My husband bought me a large "Dipladenia" for our east facing porch on the Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island. It is a covered and screened porch.
will it do all right here? Any instructions/suggestions for healthy growth? Do I feed it? Watering often, or no?
Thank you . . . I'm NEW to balcony life, having just left 80 acres of farmland!! |

| It will do ok. However it is an annual in RI so you will have to bring it in for the winter if you want to keep it. Treat it like a Mandevilla. Lots of sun, water letting the soild dry somewhat between watering. It will be beautiful. What color is yours? I have a white one, and a pink Mandevilla. Thanks,
