Bougainvillea

Description

Bougainvillea is a beautiful and vibrant plant that is native to South America. It is a woody vine that can grow up to 30cm to 160cm in height and is known for its stunning display of colorful flowers. The plant has small, white flowers that are surrounded by brightly colored bracts, which are modified leaves that are often mistaken for petals. The bracts come in a range of colors, including pink, purple, red, orange, and yellow, and can be single or double-flowered. Bougainvillea is a hardy plant that thrives in warm, sunny climates and is often used as a decorative plant in gardens, parks, and public spaces. It is also a popular choice for hanging baskets and can be trained to climb walls and trellises. The plant requires well-draining soil and regular watering, but is relatively low-maintenance once established.
