Bougainvillea is a genus of flowering plants native to the tropical and subtropical regions of Asia from Pakistan to Afghanistan, and South America from Brazil west to Peru and south to southern Argentina (Chubut Province). Different authors accept between four and 18 species in the genus. The name comes from Louis Antoine de Bougainville, an admiral in the French Navy who discovered the plant in Brazil in 1768.
They are thorny, woody, vines growing anywhere from 1-12 meters tall, scrambling over other plants with their hooked thorns. They are evergreen where rainfall occurs all year, or deciduous if there is a dry season. The leaves are alternate, simple ovate-acuminate, 4-13 cm long and 2-6 cm broad. The actual flower of the plant is small and generally white, but each cluster of three flowers is surrounded by three or six bracts with the bright colors associated with the plant, including pink, magenta, purple, red, orange, white, or yellow. Bougainvillea glabra is sometimes referred to as "paper flower" because the bracts are thin and papery. The fruit is a narrow five-lobed achene.
Bougainvillea are relatively pest-free plants, but may suffer from worms and aphids. The larvae of some Lepidoptera species also use them as food plants including Giant Leopard Moth.
[edit] Cultivation and uses
Bougainvilleas are popular ornamental plants in most areas with warm climates, including India, Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia, Australia, the Mediterranean region, the Caribbean, Mexico, South Africa, and the United States in Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii, and southern Texas.
Numerous cultivars and hybrids have been selected, including nearly thornless shrubs. Some Bougainvillea cultivars are sterile, and are propagated from cuttings.
Bougainvillea are rapid growing and flower all year in warm climates, especially when pinched or pruned. Bloom cycles are typically four to six weeks. Bougainvillea grow best in very bright full sun and with frequent fertilization, but the plant requires little water to flower. As indoor houseplants in temperate regions, they can be kept small by bonsai techniques. If overwatered, Bougainvillea will not flower and may lose leaves or wilt, or even die from root decay.
Symbolism
Various species of bougainvillea are the official flowers of the island of Grenada, of Lienchiang and Pingtung Counties in Taiwan, and of the cities of Tagbilaran, Philippines, Camarillo, California and Laguna Niguel, California. For consideration during game play of Scattegories: Bougainvillea should be considered both a flower and a vine.
Wellington buildings on an autumn evening.
The building on the right is the largest wooden building in New Zealand. It is known as the Old Government Buildings and it houses the Law School of Victoria University. It was completed in 1876, and until 1998 was the second-largest wooden building in the world.
The oddly shaped building in the centre is known as The Beehive but the official name is the Executive Wing of the New Zealand Parliament Buildings.
The building on the left is Bowen House and is currently occupied by Parliamentary Services. It is connected to the rest of the parliament buildings by an underground tunnel.

My current photography project is on the local shop keepers of Horbury and their businesses. I have been taking images of the owners and colleagues in their premises. The focus is on the person with all their products in shot, showcasing their shop as it is on an average day. I started this because I think local independent shops are a part of what keeps small communities together. As I have spent time taking the photos I have come to see the good relationships the shop keepers have with the local public, how many of them are on first name terms and how much the local community supports the local shops and services.

And yes, at 21 years of age I do still find a train set highly amusing.
All the window and door trim is done and there is screening in the windows.
There's still a lot left to do, but my god, I may actually finish it this year in time for chickens.
