Alexandra bougainvillea is a vibrant and popular variety of bougainvillea known for its striking magenta or purplish-pink bracts that surround the plant’s tiny white flowers. This fast-growing, evergreen climber is often used in warm climates as an ornamental plant for walls, trellises, and fences due to its ability to quickly cover large areas with lush color. Native to South America, bougainvillea thrives in sunny environments and well-drained soils, and the Alexandra cultivar is appreciated for its long blooming season and drought tolerance.
The Alexandra bougainvillea’s bold coloration and hardy nature also make it a popular choice for container gardening and bonsai-style pruning. It requires minimal maintenance once established, needing only occasional watering and pruning to maintain its shape. Like other bougainvillea varieties, Alexandra is thorny, so it’s often used as a natural barrier or privacy screen. Its resilience and dramatic visual impact make it a standout plant for landscaping, and its ability to bloom throughout the year in warm climates adds consistent beauty to both residential and public spaces.
