red bougainvillea
Vivid and eye-catching, red bougainvillea is a stunning addition to any New Zealand garden. Admirers are drawn to the plant’s brilliant red bracts, which create a dramatic splash of colour on fences, pergolas, garden walls, or large containers. As a fast-growing, drought-tolerant climber, red bougainvillea flourishes in our warmer climates, making it a popular choice for coastal gardens and sunny urban spaces. Whether you're hoping to attract pollinators or craft an exotic feature, it's easy to see why red bougainvillea is such a show-stopper among flowering climbers.
Bougainvillea 'Magnifica Traillii'
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.
