Reply:Bougainvillea is probably one of the best plant names there is. Just use it a lot in your paper, and make up tongue twisters and challenge the reader (your teacher) to say them. If s/he gives you a hard time, stare and him/her and say, calmly, deliberately: BOU...GAIN.....VILL...E...A...

Reply:Bougainvillea is a flowering bush found in the Caribbean, Mexico, and in the southwestern United States, based on my experience. In California you usually find two varieties - the San Diego red bougainvillea and the fuchsia (hot pink) varieties. Even though I went to a nursery in San Diego in 2004 to learn this, I am not a gardener, so I believe you can find out more by researching the history of San Diego. One small link to get you going is below. One thing you can do with bougainvillea is press it between pages of a book and then laminate on cardstock for bookmarks. That is what I did as a missionary in Puerto Rico. These flowers are very colorful and make a beautiful addition to any yard, especially if you are going for a warm, tropical type of look. I have also heard that it is possible to graft in one color of bougainvillea with another, so you can get a mixed-color look.
Reply:In 1768 when Admiral Louis de Bougainvillea began his long journey to the Pacific Ocean and discovered the vine that now bears his name, it was a botanical highlight of the voyage. Through the ensuing years, this Brazilian beauty has assumed its rightful place as one of the most popular, spectacular and beautiful tropical plants. The modern day hybrids of Bougainvillea spectabilis (B. Brasiliensis) and B. glabra are among the most beautiful of flowering vines. These tropical members of the Nyctaginaceae (Four-O'Clock) family, are very vigorous, evergreen, woody vines with spines. Although normally climbers, they can be trained to stay bushy as pot plants, hanging baskets, or as standard 3 or 4 feet high. They will bloom beautifully on branches on 18"-20" long. Keep all long shoots cut back to 18"-20" for best bloom. The vibrant color of this vine comes not from the small white tubular flowers, but from the 3 large paper-like bracts that surround each flower.








CULTURE


They grow readily from cuttings 4"-6" long, and in 4-6 weeks will develop good root systems when given bottom heat and mist. When well rooted in perlite/peat moss mix, they can be potted in small containers in a soilless mix such as Fison's Sunshine Mix No. 1 with added pine bark to give more drainage. Care should be exercised in transplanting since the fine roots often do not knit the soil together in a firm root ball. When repotting annually, slice off the outer 1"-2" of the root ball, and repot in the same size container. Bougainvillea need very bright light (2,500 fc) and do well under high shade or in full sun. These vines typically lose some leaves for a short time during the winter, but when light conditions are low, leaf loss may occur at any time. Under high light conditions, the colorful bracts will adorn the plant almost constantly and will persist for weeks. Plant in the ground in San Antonio is not recommended because of the winter damage which will result, and the fact that our soils are too rich and we receive too much rain. In the ground, the plant will stay vegetative and bloom little.
