Do you know what plant these beautiful blooms crown with their lush pink glory?
Bougainvillea....
I brought this one in over the winter, and it was larger and prettier this year, than last!
It is one of the few plants that has flourished during our hot, humid Carolina summer!
The color is so deep, it appears fluorescent!
The Oleander behind it has done very well also, ...blooming the entire summer!
Bougainvillea make great cut flowers also. They will last for over a week!
Hope you all are enjoying your Labor Day Weekend!
We are headed to the Lake! :) ~Rhonda

Rhonda- What lovely flowers! Have a wonderful weekend at the lake!:-) Lori
Such deep beautiful color. I haven't seen anything like them around here! Hope your Labor Day is happy and safe also! Mine will be spent working on the computer but I'll think of all my friends out having fun! (Do you feel sorry for me now?!) LOL!
Happy Labor Day! Have fun at the lake!
have a great weekend girl. I miss you! have not been commenting much as I have had not much to say. Most of my posts are scheduled the last while. and I feel guilty for not stopping in more. take care! your flowers are spectacular
Lovely bougainvillea! We have them in Southern California, too, in bloom now. They are so shockingly beautiful!!!
Happy Pink Saturday to you!
So enjoyed the pink flowers...but then again I like practically any flowers.
Hope your weekend was wonderful!
Hugs from Oklahoma -where we have so much red dirt that it leaves a pink cast to many things...such as white socks.

Wow...that is just the prettiest flower. I've always wished I lived somewhere that I could grow them. I never realized they worked so well as cut flowers! I hope you have a fabulous weekend too!
Oh I love that lamp shade too!!

Bougainvilla, one of my favorite flowers. Yours are gorgeous.
Have a Happy Pink Saturday and a Wonderful Labor Day!
Blessings, Virginia
You picked a beauty and it looks like it's flourishing. Bougainvilla happens to be the city flower here in Camarillo, Ca.
One of the daughters of the Mexican land owner who owned all the land here (Adolfo Camarillo) chose the Bougainvilla to be the city flower. Enjoy your pink saturday and labor day weekend...
Beautiful flowers! Happy Pink Saturday!
Hi Rhonda,
Your bougainvillea's are beautiful. I always cover mine over the winter with sheets. Otherwise I have to start all over when Spring comes. I like your idea of planting them in a pot. That would give color to my porch. :-)
Hi Rhonda and happy Pink Saturday! Oh, your flowers are so beautiful. I've often heard the bougainvillea is called the forgotten plant because it doesn't need much care. I have meant to get one, but never have.
Oh, I'm hoping Ashley has seen her Diva picture. She is just a beautiful young lady. Tell her is is so pretty!! You had better lock her up ~ the boys will be knocking down your door! They probably already are! lol
Be a Pink sweetie,
Shelia :)
What beautiful flowers Rhonda. The shade of pink is gorgeous!!!! I would love to have cut flowers like that in my home!
Enjoy your weekend at the lake. This is my last weekend before school starts. I hope to make the most of it.
Happy Pink Saturday!
take care,
Dawn
Happy Pink Saturday, Rhonda. I have missed your smiling face on Saturday.
I adore bougainvillea. We had one growing on a trellis on one side of our home when we lived in South Florida. We had to constantly trim it to keep it from growing on to the roof.
Hi Rhonda... WOW, that is one amazing flower... love those thick Pink blossoms! I do not have a green thumb, so I really enjoy your garden photos!
I'll be thinking of you as you and your family enjoy the final weekend of Summer at your lovely Lake House! Be safe and have fun... God bless...
~hugs 'n love~
