description for "Trees and Shrubs: Bougainvillea (Spectoperuviana Group) 'Mary Palmer'"
Bougainvillea 'Mary Palmer' is an outstanding cultivar that must be seen to be believed. It sports three striking colors of bracts - white, magenta, and bicolor - all at the same time. Its leaves are variegated with bold patches of white and yellow, so it puts on a marvelous display. Water well during the growing season, but also make sure to give adequate drainage. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
