Bougainvillea (Explored)
Explored no. 67 on 15/4/15 - thank you all for your help !
We saw so many buildings in Portugal with this beautiful shrub climbing all over them - beautiful sight ! They come in all sorts of different colours, but this is my favourite - a lovely salmon pink.
They are native plants of South America from Brazil west to Perú and south to southern Argentina (Chubut Province). Bougainvillea are also known as buganvilla (Spain), bugambilia (Mexico), Napoleón (Honduras), veranera (Colombia, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica and Panama), trinitaria (Colombia, Cuba, Panama, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic & Venezuela), Santa Rita (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay) or papelillo (northern Peru).
Bet you didn't know that - but I hope you like this !
Textures: My own and one from PicMonkey - one of their 'paper' textures.
