A few months ago I purchased a mandevilla vine. Until about a month ago it was in the same pot it had come in and doing well. I decided after my sunflowers dried up to move it to the sunny patch against my fence, since it was listed as a full sun plant. So now it's in the ground, but I'm having problems.

First it seems like it doesn't really like the sun.
Secondly I made the mistake of cutting off the old vine growth and now it isn't growing back from where I cut it (which is a large portion of the plant).

Any suggestions would be helpful! I can provide pics.
