Creating a bougainvillea or paper flower plant with multicolored blooms is most popularly achieved using grafting techniques, such as tip grafting or side grafting. A healthy, vigorous bougainvillea plant with a well-developed root system is used as the main plant or rootstock. Sterile twig cuttings from other bougainvillea plants, featuring different colors or leaf types (variegated). The process must be carried out carefully to ensure success.

My uncle grafted five different stone fruits onto the one root stock. He was really good at grafting.
