What a beauty John! I have seen small bougainvilleas as bonsai, but that has to be the champion.

A bougainvillea BONSAI no less! Very beautiful...not the best bonsai I've seen, but definitely very pleasant to look at nonetheless!

John that is gorgeous! How old is it?

Here are a couple pictures of the new growth on two of my variegated bougainvillea Raspberry Ice. Both have an albino branch which I think is very cool. They are young, I've had them for two years, and the albino branches continue to grow and survive, I think because they are attached to the main stem.

Very nice, Jan. As for the picture I posted, it was just something I snapped, at the show. I have no idea what variety it is, how old it is, or even who's it was. Sorry!

We had one very similar for yrs, but forgot to get it in one yr when it froze--very pretty.

Nice bougainvilleas! Mine lost a lot of its leaves when it went inside for the winter, but it has lots of new growth now. I think it will really take off this summer. They are really nice vines.
