Bougainvillea spectabilis 'Jamaica White' - Bougainvillea

White bougainvillea, with its color described as "bland", are less popular than red and orange varieties. But wrongly so: in colorful potted gardens, white bougainvilleas like the 'Jamaica White' variety provide a sense of calm and separate overly colorful flowers from one another. If you place a red and an orange bougainvillea next to each other, for example, they will compete or even clash with each other. With a white bougainvillea in between as a mediator, each of the three comes into its own. Not to mention the trend of a white garden design that impresses with its elegance and clarity. With a white bougainvillea on the terrace, add a gem to the white garden guests, bringing an international and exotic flair to your garden. White-flowering bougainvilleas are robust, vigorous and strong-growing and can tolerate a slightly larger planter every year or two.

Quality: decent perennial bloomers, vigorous climbers or pruned as shrubs/standards

Use: from May outside on balcony & terrace; all year round in heated winter gardens
