My favourite colour is the peachy one though I'm sure they look far nicer growing in a garden like yours Andrea rather than having their stems wrapped around trellis and wire to keep them restrained as houseplants.Rosie@leavesnbloomhttp://www.leavesnbloom.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-2852476665945269892012-04-29T10:29:58.033+08:002012-04-29T10:29:58.033+08:00Gorgeous shots and interesting info on the bougain...Gorgeous shots and interesting info on the bougainvillea. :-) Thanks for sharing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-60965457981805990972012-04-28T13:23:28.722+08:002012-04-28T13:23:28.722+08:00Beautiful flowers, lovely pictures....

Things have been very busy here and trying to find time to sit and write and read has been challenging. I can only do it at a night. But the weekend is here. Tomorrow, I'll have some coffee and read again!!!:) Bougainvillea is such a great plant waterwise because it doesn't use much of it once it's established and it can also take brutal desert sun here in Tucson. But it doesn't like to get too cold. Doesn't mind a prune every now and again....the only disadvantage of this plant is with the thorns. I love the variegated varieties. Hope you have a fabulous weekend!!!
