Grown year round in tropical climates it's strictly only a summer visitor where I live. I really like the hot pink color of this one and just like poinsettias the flowers are only the little white part - the colorful parts are the bracts surrounding the flower.

Kathy, for me, poinsettias are more appropriate for Christmas, while Bougainvillea flowers are more appropriate for all festive occasions. Therefore I can simply say that your capture is a feast for the eyes, ☺ .

A decorative plant very popular in the tropics. Nice shot showing the bright red color and details Kathy.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
