Here’s a clear and concise description of the bougainvillea plant:

Bougainvillea Plant Description
Bougainvillea is a vibrant, fast-growing, woody vine or shrub belonging to the Nyctaginaceae family. Native to South America, especially Brazil, Peru, and Argentina, it is now widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions around the world for its stunning, colorful appearance.

Physical Features:
Stems: Thin, woody, and often covered with sharp thorns. They are flexible when young but become woody with age.

Leaves: Simple, oval to heart-shaped, with a pointed tip. Leaves are green and often slightly hairy.

Bracts & Flowers:

The bright colors seen on bougainvillea are not the flowers, but modified leaves called bracts.

Bracts are typically magenta, purple, red, orange, pink, white, or yellow.

The true flowers are small, tubular, and white or yellow, nestled inside the colorful bracts.

Height & Spread: Depending on variety and care, bougainvillea can grow as a shrub, climber, or ground cover, reaching up to 30 feet or more in length when trained.

Growth Habit:
Bougainvillea is a climbing plant, often trained to grow on trellises, fences, walls, or arbors.

It can also be pruned into bushes, bonsai, or hedges.

Habitat & Care:
Prefers full sunlight (at least 5–6 hours a day).

Grows best in well-drained soil and does not tolerate waterlogged roots.

Drought-tolerant once established; too much water or fertilizer can reduce blooming.

Thrives in warm climates; not frost-hardy and may need protection in cold weather.

Requires occasional pruning to maintain shape and encourage flowering.

Uses:
Widely used in landscaping for its color and versatility.

Ideal for covering walls, fences, pergolas, and creating colorful borders or hedges.

Popular in container gardening and as bonsai in some regions.
