Bougainvillea by haagjes

Bougainvillea

A house in our neighbourhood with a beautiful bougainvillea that is growing bigger every year. While checking the correct spelling, I just found out that the colours you see are not the actual flowers, but the bracts (schutbladeren in Dutch) surrounding the tiny white flowers.
Wow, that is gorgeous! Those people definitely have curb appeal!
Great shot Ellen.

Prachtig; dat van die schutbladeren is voor mij ook nieuw!

Cool feitje, ik ga zo even googlen hoe die bloemetjes er dan uit zien, want mijn nieuwsgierigheid is nu wel gewekt ;-)
