Description

Bougainvillea 'Jamaica White' is an evergreen shrubby vine. It produces white bracts, veined in light green and is moderately vigorous. When the basic structure is establishing, it's important to tie stems to a fense or wall, since they have no means of attachment while young. It produces vibrant colored, papery, petal-like big bracts. Bougainvillea is a fast, vigorous grower, reaching 15'-30' height.
