In Cape Town, it can flower for an extended period through the warmer months, with the main display typically from spring through summer and often continuing into autumn when conditions are favourable. Its compact, spreading-to-climbing habit makes it especially useful for containers, trellises, walls, borders and smaller gardens. Once established, its drought tolerance makes it an excellent choice for water-wise landscaping.\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThis tough Bougainvillea is well suited to Mediterranean, coastal and low-water gardens, and needs less watering once established.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep, vibrant bracts make a striking display.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIts compact habit makes it ideal for smaller gardens and containers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlowers most prolifically in a warm, sunny position.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrought tolerant once established.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to grow, tough and low maintenance once established.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlant \u0026amp; Care \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePlant in full sun with well-drained soil for the best flowering and colour.
