Blooming Bougainvillea

    Oh! My bougainvillea are in full bloom again. You really have to take some time to watch them closely and appreciate the beauty of God's creation. As long as sufficient care and love are given unselfishly towards your plants you would get rewarded. Since most of us are too busy with our working life we might all take the bloom for granted and do not really appreciate their beauty. Do stop work and watch their prolific bloom.

    The bougainvillea plant that the pictures show is grown in a big pot placed at the front iron grille fence of my house.  I purposely place it that way so as to act as a thorning barrier against any intruder into my home. The thorny branches are enough to put any nasty people away. Cats and dogs also avoid them. Well then it is necessary to keep the plant neatly and nicely trimmed to look in good shape and a beauty to our eyes.
