BOUGAINVILLEA 
No vine is more typical of California than Bougainvillea with its 
lavish display of color, from the dry desert regions to the seacoast, 
on Spanish type houses and over walls and fences. In planting be 
careful not to break ball of soil when removing from containers. 
This injury may cause them to die. We suggest cutting off the 
bottom of the container and planting with the side intact, allowing 
the metal to rust away. Otherwise they are free and rapid growers. 
Tender, particularly new growth. 
Bougainvillea Afterglow. Quite a pleasing contrast to the older red 
flowered Bougainvilleas is this new one which is predominantly 
orange with just a touch of pink toward the center. Flowers are 
ee in large showy clusters. Very beautiful. Gal. Sol S10), S-eril
