Notes
'Ice' bougainvillea (Bougainvillea 'Ice') is a shrub for containers, hedges, and privacy screens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. It is evergreen, so it keeps its leaves through the year. Its drought tolerance and salt tolerance make it easy to care for.
Pairs well with Angelonia, Lemon grass, and African daisy.
