Bougainvillea 



Crimson Lake. Introduced through the Bureau of Plant 



Industry of the Department of Agriculture. 



The flowers are like all other Bougainvilleas, perhaps a trifle 

 larger, but in coloring none compare with it in richness and 

 brilliancy. On first opening a brilliant crimson-lake, retaining 

 this color for three or four weeks, after which they gradually pass 

 to a crimson-carmine. 



In Southern California and Florida, the Bougainvilleas make 

 gorgeous climbers for outdoor planting, while in the north they 

 are useful subjects as pot plants for the conservatory or greenhouse.
