Bouganvillea glabra. Bonsai 10 years. Bougainvillea. Due to their characteristics these are outdoor trees, ideal for balconies, gardens and terraces. Climbing plant, provided with thorns. Very appreciated for pergolas, and for its flowering, which in climates such as the Mediterranean is produced in abundance throughout the year.

Location: We admire it for its flowering, of bright colours, pink, purple and violet, are nothing more than three bracts that protect inside the true flowers, small, yellowish, tubular and grouped in three within an involucre.

Watering: Abundant in summer and moderate the rest of the year. Be careful with the quality of the water, since it has a tendency to chlorosis, which is why the leaves turn yellowish. We must know that bougainvillea loses its leaves when overwatered.

Curiosities: In areas with a Mediterranean climate, outdoors, in full sun all year round. In colder areas, we must protect it from frost.

Dimensions in centimetres approx. (width x depth x height): 27 x 19 x 23
