A purple bougainvillea is a must have for long lasting, summer time color. Color will be non stop from spring through first frost, making this bougainvillea variety a good choice for a splash of color on a sunny fence, up a trellis, in a planter box, or even as a ground cover if allowed to grow with no support. Monrovia growers suggests planting on banks or slopes for an avalanche of color, or allow the purple queen bougainvillea to drape over the edge of retaining walls. Thrives on full hot sun. Ground cover growth to 18 inches tall and about 8 feet wide, or to 15 feet tall if supported. For those in extreme winter areas, its long lasting color makes it a worthwhile choice for a summer time annual in a container on porch or deck. Hardy to USDA zone 10 and all higher zones. Shipped as a potted five gallon specimen to ensure a healthier start when planted in yard or garden.
