A perfect example of the vibrant and colorful bougainvillea decorating the wall of my neighbors house. |
Walking down just about any block on the island of Oahu, I am sure you will see a Bougainvillea. They can be seen as a small bush, potted, planted in the ground, or growing wild and free. They are known for their paper like bracts that vary in a wide array of colors from the above pictured magenta color, to orange, pink, white, or burgundy. This a very popular choice for an ornamental plant because it adds a vivid pop of color to any garden. Also, this plant is perfect for growing in Hawai'i's warm weather and salty air.
