Bougainvillea Bambino™ 'Bilas'

Bougainvillea Bilas is one of the best varieties for pots/containers, it does really well. The flowers are bright red and are borne in profusion on mature plants. The most unusual attribute of Bilas is its foliage. All of the new growth emerges as a creamy pink with no sign of green in the leaf at all. It is really such a lack of colour that one would think it would not grow and thrive – but it does. As the leaves age they become variegated, cream and green and even later on develop more green.
