It is 77 here in So Cal today and tomorrow, absolutely spectacular weather - but that is about to change and much-needed rain is supposedly headed our way (we've been lied to about this before!). Meanwhile, bougainvillea can be counted on to "bloom" during the worst and best weather - blasting summer heat, freezing rain, and everything in between. This one is called "Sea Foam" and is white, green and pink. I got it for $1.00 years ago off of the dead plant table at Lowe's to try to cover up an unsightly wall:

That bouganvilla is the best rescue I have ever seen. And your doggo looks so handsome, looks like he’s been to the groomer.

Late to the thread. Feel like I’m running a mile a minute these last few days. Time to turn off the Christmas to do list, and check in on the serenity laden weekly garden thread.

Bon, I love your Seafoam Bougainvillea. I love Bougainvillea of every color, and wish, so wish, I could get it to grow here for me in Indiana. So far, no luck. Reminds me of certain parts of Florida where I grew up. Yes, I was born there, too, but what do you know when you’re a wee baby?

Anyway, beautiful Boug you’ve got there! Cute doggy, too!
