They brighten up the place, certainly. But it's not the flowers that do that. The flowers are small white rather tiny ones. It is the papery bracts that surrounds them that range through a wide variety of hues.The leaves are bright green.Together the plant makes a colourful display
The striking Bougainville is a thorny creeper or bush. Magenta, red, orange, rust, white, pink and bi coloured, these plants are used either on boundary walls or as small bushes in containers.

I depend on my bougainvillae to brighten up our garden when all else fails to. I have many colours.

They can always be relied on. Do you have the red and white together variety? That is so pretty

@responsiveme I really did. Its amazing what a little bit of trimming and car can do to your bougainvillea. Bonsai is interesting for a beginner like me bougainvilleas are good.

Actually we take them so much for granted. The airport approach makes a wonderful display.
Bonsai must be interesting
