Bougainvillea -Boganvilla flowers



Bougainvillea is native to South America from Brazil west to Peru and south to southern Argentina (Chubut Province). Different authors recognize between four and 18 species. The first European to describe these plants was French botanist Philibert Commerçon, admiral of the French navy, and explorer Louis Antoine de Bougainville accompanied him on his voyage. The plant is named after this French admiral.


They are thorny, woody vines 1 to 12 meters tall that straddle other plants with their spikes. The spines are tipped with a black, waxy substance. They are evergreen where rainfall occurs throughout the year, 
or deciduous if there is a dry season
.
Most bougainvilleas today are the result of interbreeding, with only three of the eighteen South American species recognized by botanists. There are currently over 300 varieties of bougainvillea around the world. Because many hybrids have passed through several generations, it is difficult to trace their origins.
Natural mutations seem to occur spontaneously throughout the world; Bud games will occur wherever plants produce large numbers. This has led to multiple names for the same cultivar (or cultivar) and added to the confusion of bougainvillea cultivar names.

Hibiscus

  Plant Name -  Hibiscus Hibiscus, (genus Hibiscus), is a genus of many species of herbs, shrubs, and trees in the mallow family (Malvaceae), native to warm temperate and tropical regions. A few are cultivated as ornamentals for their showy flowers, and a few are useful as fiber plants. Physical description Mandrinet Mandrinet (Hibiscus fragilis) is an endangered shrub in Mauritius. Hibiscus A hibiscus flower bears pollen on the stamens (male structure), pistil (female structure). This unusual arrangement is common among members of the Malvaceae family. Leaves are often lobed and smooth or covered with trichomes (plant hairs). Flowers may be borne singly or in clusters, and in most species flowers last only one day. Epicalyx (the whorl of leaf-like bracts surrounding the sepals) is particularly common, and the stamens are usually united into a tube. Members of this genus characteristically have prickly anthers and their fruits are capsules.      Major species Chinese hibiscus Flowering
