Propagated Mom's Bougainvillea

My Mom has a very bushy bougainvillea tree in front of the house. During summer the tree produces flowers of different colors, fushia, pink and orange. I'm not sure if it's from one tree or several. She also has a white one of the side of the garage.



The frontage has seen several changes. It used to have palm trees and suntan plants. It also once had a fruit bearing tree. If I remember correctly it was a santol tree. Eventually Mom changed it to low maintenance plants and it's thrives through the years.


One of my projects is to propagate her plants, especially the ones I can't bring to my home. I took some cuttings and made a soil mix with some river sand. Its been over a month since I propagated the cuttings and some have grown new leaves. Yay! I'll probably give it another month to grow more roots, then I'll transfer it.

Let's see where this goes :)
