Bougainvillea 'Magnifica Traillii' climber with purple flowers and lush, green foliage.

Bougainvillea 'Magnifica Traillii'

5 from 1 customers

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.

What Affects Bougainvillea Tree Price?

Bougainvillea tree price varies based on several factors, including tree size, age, variety, and whether the plant is trained as a standard or left as a free-form climber. Mature bougainvillea trees or those shaped into dramatic topiaries usually command a higher price due to the years of nurturing and shaping required. Compact or younger bougainvilleas are more affordable and great for DIY gardeners interested in training their own specimen.

Bougainvillea varieties also play a role in pricing. Sought-after cultivars like Bougainvillea 'Scarlet O'Hara', known for deeply saturated pink bracts, or the multi-toned Bougainvillea 'Tropical Rainbow', can fetch premium prices thanks to their vibrant colours and unique appearances. Some favourites among New Zealand gardeners also include Bougainvillea 'Hawaiian Gold', beloved for its rich yellow blooms, and the robust Bougainvillea 'Magnifica Traillii'.

Average Bougainvillea Tree Price in NZ

So, what should you expect when planning your purchase? On average, bougainvillea tree price in New Zealand starts around $35 – $60 for smaller potted shrubs or standards. Large, mature bougainvilleas or those that have been expertly shaped can range from $120 up to $350 or more, depending on availability and the nursery’s growing practices. Specialty varieties, such as Bougainvillea 'Beesnees', may fall into the higher price brackets due to their rarity or sought-after characteristics.

When comparing bougainvillea tree price, don’t overlook the long-term value. Bougainvilleas are robust, drought-tolerant, and thrive in New Zealand’s sunnier regions with very little fuss. Their longevity and dazzling display year after year make them a smart investment for garden lovers.
