Plant Description:
- The color of this variety is misleading. It starts a very faint pink - almost white. The bracts gradually turn darker pink. These are called the million dollar varieties. Probably because when these were first introduced - they were a sensation (and sensationally expensive!) The flowers are multi bracted. They are dense and look very full. PLants are not too large growing. The only drawback of these varieties is that they are not self cleaning i.e. the old flowers do not fall off immediately. They stay on the plant for a long time and eventually drop off.

Growing tips:
- Care and culture for all bougainvilleas is the same. That they need - no care and no culture. Bougainvillea are hardy plants. Care should be taken while planting new plants. Do not break the soil ball. They have very few and fine roots. If these break - plants may die. Once established care is minimum. They need the occasional pruning to keep them in check. Avoid planting next to trees as they may climb up and take over the tree. Pruning should be done after the flowering is over. Water absolutely less. It is okay if the leaves wilt a little. The water stress makes them flower more.
