Bougainvillea - Barbara Karst
Bougainvilleas are currently at their peak here in Arizona and I just love the tropical color they add to my landscaping. A native of South America, these plants come in a variety of colors such as orange, pink, red, lilac, fuschia, white and purple. I particularly like the Barbara Karst variety for its vibrant color and profuse blooms.
I have them growing along the walls and also have trained three to climb up the columns of my patio.
