I first thought that seeing more of the plant would help identify this Bougainvillea species, but I'm not so sure anymore. Discriminating between the species and the hybrids isn't easy. There's a comprehensive Bougainvillea Tutorial, if anyone is interested in the diversity of the Bougainvilleas http://www.askmar.com/Bougainvilleas/bougainvilleas.html Posted 12 years ago
