Bougainvillea Various Colors- Ball 10L

Bougainvillea bursts into flower from spring and will flower through summer making them a great addition to the garden and along boundary walls. The drier the spring, the better they flower. Bougainvillea are easily clipped and trained to make a striking container plant or pruned into more formal hedges or focal plants.  The expression WOW, is what comes to mind when one sees them in full flower, the solid mass of colour is simply that spectacular. Originally from South America bougainvillea are sprawling climbers and shrubs with formidable thorns on mature plants growing up to +-10m tall. They are suited to a somewhat arid, subtropical to tropical climate, being semi-hardy to frost when young. When in flower, their insignificant flowers are surrounded by bracts of blazing colour in bright purples, pinks, oranges and all the shades in between. Those with darker flowers are as a rule of thumb a little tougher than the pastel colours.
