Bougainvillea is a stunning tropical vine renowned for its explosive bursts of vibrant color that transform any space into a Mediterranean or vacation paradise. Native to South America, this fast-growing, woody climber features papery, flower-like bracts in dazzling shades of pink, magenta, purple, red, orange, yellow, or white (the true tiny flowers are subtle and hidden inside). Often called the "paper flower," its thorny stems and heart-shaped leaves make it perfect for draping over walls, fences, trellises, pots, or hanging baskets.
