Bougainvillea

Scarlet Glory is known for its vibrant rosy scarlet red flowers that bloom abundantly during summer and autumn. Flowering from October through to May, this vigorous climber delivers an extended season of colour, making it an excellent choice for adding visual impact to outdoor spaces. Its climbing habit allows it to easily cover pergolas, trellises, fences, and walls, where it can also be used as a decorative screen. Pruning after the main flowering flush helps encourage fresh new growth and promotes continued flowering throughout the season.

Soil: Well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun. Bougainvilleas can be grown from warm temperate to tropical areas and are happy in coastal gardens.

Bougainvillea Bambino Zuki is a unique and compact bougainvillea variety that captivates with its claret-red flowers, highlighted beautifully against variegated foliage. New leaves emerge with hints of pink and green, maturing to a striking white and green contrast, making this plant a year-round spectacle. Released in spring 1997, Bambino Zuki is a tidy grower that blooms for several months, even in shaded conditions, making it ideal for adding vibrant charm to courtyards, patios, and smaller garden spaces. 

Soil: Prefers well-draining, fertile soil with organic matter such as compost to enhance growth and structure. Mulching around the base helps retain moisture and reduces weeds.
Conditions: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, requiring less direct sunlight than most bougainvillea varieties for good flowering. Sensitive to frost, so protect in colder climates.
