Bougainvillea Barbara Karst - 2 Gallon
Barbara Karst Bougainvillea is a woody, tropical, climbing vine that shows off a mass of hot pink color from late spring into fall. As a perennial, this bougainvillea, is an evergreen in frost free climates but is durable in colder climates as well, and will return yearly with plenty of warm weather.
It grows quickly with a mature height at approximately 20 feet tall, and preforms best when planted alongside a trellis or fence, or when allowed to trail off from hanging baskets or slope. It can be pruned at any time. It prefers full sunlight (6+ hours) and dry to average moisture levels. Drought tolerant and hardy, this makes Barbara Karst Bougainvillea a stress free and low maintenance beauty!
