In Bloom: Now's the Time to Buy these Bougainvillea

In Bloom: Now's the Time to Buy these Bougainvillea
Bougainvilleas are super easy to grow due to the fact that they love direct sunlight. Plus they can survive in poor quality soil and, once established, don't need much water. The many varieties mean you can find one to suit your need. Whether filling a pot or covering the entire facade of a house. (Get really good care information here.)

All varieties below are zone 10-11. Live in a colder zone? Use as a festive annual.

SHORT (UP TO 10 FT. TALL)

These are bougainvillea that don’t necessarily grow tall, but have branches that grow long (up 10 ft.). Useful as groundcovers on sunny hillsides or where you want color but don’t intend to “tend” the area. Also containers, especially hanging baskets and deep windowboxes.

Oo-La-La® Bougainvillea

MEDIUM (UP TO 20 FT. TALL)

When you're looking for something with festival color, a medium-sized bougainvillea does the trick without overwhelming. It's eye-catching leaves can decorate a sturdy pergola or arch. Plus, it can be used to make nearly invisible a tall chain-link fence or not-so-pretty tall retaining wall.

Purple Queen® Bougainvillea

Golden Jackpot® Bougainvillea

Tolerates light shade. Festive seasonal color in pots or long-term groundcover.

TALL (UP TO 30 FT. TALL)

We've seen very tall bougainvilleas cladding every sort of surface from estate gates to garage walls. However, it's especially effective scrambling up, over, and around the Mediterranean and Spanish architecture of the west. All good-just make sure you provide sturdy support.

Gold Rush™ Bougainvillea

I have the Oh-la-la bougainvilleas that are in large pots. They bloom then loose all their leaves then regrow leaves then bloom! They never grow much in size. I have same one in the ground and it grow normally and is up to the roof. Please tell me what to do. Thought I was told they grow good in large pots! These are about 4 years old. Thank you!
