Bougainvillea grows wild here everywhere. It also grows up trees to more than 70 feet/ 23 meters high. Of course, it's also available in many colors.

I do love our climate with its seasons, but I must admit all this beautiful colouring and exotic plants...tempting!

This is a really gorgeous display. Bougainvillea has always fascinated me, such a vibrant flowering vine. I haven't seen orange, its really quite striking.

Thanks! :>)

Bougainvillea is very widely grown here in San Diego, CA. They can grown up to more than 80ft/25m tall on a palm tree trunk.

That has to be professionally done. Looks slick!

It could be. However, it can easily be planted like this.
