Bougainvillea or Azalea?
What would you say these were at first glance? I thought they were azaleas when I first spotted them in Hawaii. They were clipped in the foolish way that some people do azaleas, destroying their lovely natural forms and changing them into boxes. (What do they think boxwoods are for, and why do you suppose they are called that?haha).But this is not azalea, it's bougainvillea. It was blooming everywhere in landscaped areas. It seemed to be a favorite for shopping centers and other businesses, as well as homes.It made me realize how puny and pitiful mine are in pots. I know they need repotting and fertilizer.
