    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.

    By: Logee's Plants for Home & Garden

    A vigorous vining shrub with arching stems and variegated green and white leaves. Producing bracts of mauve-purplish flowers from summer thru fall. Thrives on sun and heat, does not like temps below 50 °F. A real eye catcher.
