• Bright purple paper-like flowers contrasted by variegated green-and-cream leaves
• Drought-tolerant and fast-growing vine suitable for trellises, fences, or hanging baskets
• Attracts butterflies and other pollinators, enhancing outdoor environments
• Requires minimal care with low watering needs
• Thrives in full sun exposure for optimal blooming

Growing Information

This Bougainvillea prefers full sun, requiring at least six hours of direct sunlight daily to encourage vibrant blooms. It grows best in well-draining sandy or loamy soil and is drought-tolerant, so watering should be done only when the soil is dry. The plant exhibits a fast-growing, vining or cascading habit, making it ideal for vertical supports or hanging displays. Pruning can be performed to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth. Suitable for USDA zones 9-11, it can also be grown indoors in cooler climates.
