Bougainvillea

Bougainvillea, a fast growing beautiful plant that will cover your whole house with flowers if you let it. If you are a pool owner this plant is not for you, because eventually will all this lovely flowers dry up, fall off and, fly away and end up in your pool.


We had this amazing bougainvillea in font of our house. We had. After a while we had it with all that dry flower flying around. When the winter came we didn't cover it and a few days with frost killed it.

A bougainvillea can be cut down a lot to make room for other plans or to keep it from cover up something, like your windows. Just don't cut off to much of the plant at one time, it will make it weak. You can cut it anytime but I would recommend not to cut it during the coldest or the hottest period of the year.
