So that's how they do it.. bugambillas or bougainvilleas

Last week I posted this picture of the bougainvillea I have been working on, finally getting it shaped.

This is what it looks like from the other side.

And here's another that has a couple of years of shearing and shaping.

These are some of the ones I've studied every time I drive in the city.

They are quite old and how they survive and remain healthy is simply a testimony of the resilience and power of plants.

And that's how they do it.  I'm still working on it, but making progress.
