    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Refreshment for the eye. The flowers are not purple, not pink, not blue, but a cool concoction of all three, like blueberry sherbert. The eye finds it irresistible. Freely flowering with the added dazzle of variegated leaves makes 'Blueberry Ice' an outstanding Bougainvillea.
