If you're searching for a show-stopping addition to your garden, the bougainvillea tree is a top contender. Known for its vibrant colours and lush foliage, the bougainvillea tree thrives in New Zealand’s temperate climate, creating instant visual impact and transforming ordinary spaces into tropical retreats. Whether you’re dreaming of cascading blossoms along a fence or crafting a bold feature in a pot, growing bougainvillea as a tree provides both beauty and versatility. With shades ranging from deep reds to dazzling purples, there’s a bougainvillea tree variety to spark colour in your landscape year-round.

Bougainvillea 'Magnifica Traillii', commonly known as Paper Flower, is a deciduous climber that produces masses of showy, deep purple flowers. In cool climates it flowers during summer only, but in warmer climates it may flower throughout the year and remain evergreen. The flowers are complemented with lush, dark green foliage, which generally develops yellow tones in autumn before falling as it grows to 5 m tall and 4 m wide. Bougainvillea 'Magnifica Traillii' is perfect for training over an arch or gazebo, or allowing to ramble along a fence. Where it doesn’t have a support structure, it will grow as a groundcover and can be used for planting on a bank or the like.
