Bikoro - such a great plant when grown well like that. There are lots in my area - but sadly I have run out of sunny spots for it to do well in.

Hi Bikoro child!

I LOVE Bougainvilleas!!

I have resisted buying more than one - but next year(Wahaha)...watch out!!

They have so many beautiful colors!
I found a Gold one, peach one, cherry red, salmon & a variegated-leaf one & the bright purples & pinks(of course )

The one you have pictured is GORGEOUS!!! Thank you for posting them!! ~Cheryl
