Bougainvillea Scarlet O'Hara

Bougainvillea Scarlet O’Hara, commonly known as the Paper Flower, is a vigorous climber that produces magnificent, rich red flowers. In cool climates it flowers during summer only, but in warmer climates it may flower throughout the year and remain evergreen. It typically grows to 5 m tall and 4 m wide but is usually trimmed to control growth. Bougainvillea Scarlet O’Hara is perfect for training over an arch or gazebo or allowing to ramble along a fence. Where it doesn’t have a support structure it will grow as a groundcover and can be used for planting on a bank or the like.
