Description

The Popular Purple Bougainvillea

The Bougainvillea Glabra ‘Helen Johnson’ (or Paper Flower) is a small cousin to the larger bougainvilleas, but it still delivers the visual punch and easy care tendencies you love in these plants. Best kept small,(about 3 ft or less), it is both salt and cold tolerant – it will thrive in less than ideal conditions.

When you plant it in full sun, you’ll be rewarded with an abundance of flowers. The light, papery look of the bracts gives it its name.This plant loves to “take off” and stretch anywhere it can. So, Gardeners…be vigilant and keep it trimmed to your liking.

    Nice size

  2. Adrianne Be (verified owner)

    I ordered two plants. Side by sauce they look like night and day.
    I know they will bounce back after shipping, but one came without any foliage, and it is about 5 inches smaller than the other one.
    It seams that I got plants from different price ranges.

  11. Dawn Hanson (verified owner)

    Several of the branches were broken. One of them was a bigger main branch. I figured it was thrown around in shipping–but maybe if you used air packs or bubble wrap, the plant would not of come looking so mangled.

  12. Teresa (verified owner)

    This was my second order, and the plants arrived in excellent condition.

  13. Teresa (verified owner)

    My plants are in the process of recovering from shipping shock, but they seem to be nice quality. Customer service is excellent.
