| Botanical Name | Bougainvillea 'Elizabeth Angus' |
| Description | 'Elizabeth Angus' is a vigorous, semi-evergreen vine that produces masses of vibrant purple-magenta bracts. While it thrives in our intense Houston humidity, it requires excellent drainage. It does not tolerate heavy, waterlogged clay soils well; for best results, plant in raised beds or containers to ensure roots stay relatively dry during our heavy rain cycles. |
| Exposure | Full Sun (Essential for best color) |
| Height x Width | 15-30 ft. Tall x 8-10 ft. Wide (with support) |
| Water | Low to Moderate; allow soil to dry out between waterings. |
| Zones | 9 - 11 (Requires protection from hard freezes in Houston) |
| Fertilization | Fertilize regularly during the growing season with a specialty Bougainvillea or Hibiscus food. |
| Pruning | Prune after a flowering cycle to shape and encourage a new flush of blooms. |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
