#BougainvilleaGlabra, or #paperflower are STILL flowering away throughout many suburbs here in #melbourne #Australia.
I’ve seen this one blooming for months now. It’s located on a busy road and gets it’s fair share of appreciative observers, I guarantee it!
The flowers on #bougainvillea are about 0.5 cm in diameter (the pink petal-like structures are not petals, but they’re known as ‘bracts’.
See pic 4, which is from another tree, featured previously, for a close up detail of the flower and bracts.
