San Diego Red Bougainvillea delivers a bold statement with its rich, true red bracts that hold their color brilliantly under intense sun. Slightly less aggressive than 'Barbara Karst', it offers the same spectacular floral display with a perhaps more manageable habit. It is a superb choice for adding a punch of warm, vibrant red to pergolas, trellises, or as a sprawling ground cover in zones where it is hardy, guaranteed to attract admiration and hummingbirds.

• True, Sun-Fast Red: Produces large clusters of bracts in a deep, vibrant red that does not fade to orange or magenta in full sun.

• Heavy, Recurrent Bloomer: Flowers in tremendous flushes from spring to fall, often covering the plant completely.

• Strong but Slightly Less Rampant: A vigorous grower that can be somewhat easier to manage in garden settings compared to the most aggressive varieties.

• Excellent for Warm Climates: Thrives in intense heat and full sun, requiring very little water once established.

• Versatile Landscape Accent: Perfect for training on an arbor, covering a chain-link fence with color, or growing as a colorful mound or hedge.
