Bougainvillea Red Zed

Red Zed Bougainvillea

The Red Zed Bougainvillea is grown for its spectacular and colourful flowers. Through summer it bears masses of rich red flowers which blend nicely with the dark green foliage. This evergreen typically grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide without a support structure but much larger when it has something to climb. Without support it will grow more like a groundcover. It grows best when planted on a well-drained, sheltered site in either full sun or partial shade. It will tolerate light frost once established. The Red Zed Bougainvillea is commonly used as a small climber, added to mixed plantings, used as a groundcover, or planted anywhere the beauty of this plant can be enjoyed.
