Bursting Bougainvillea

April 15, 2016

bougainvillea-houston There’s an enormous bougainvillea bush in bloom at the moment a few blocks from our apartment. Maya and I took a walk to take a few photos today, since the sun has finally shown its face for the first time since the weekend. Every time we go out for a walk or I go for a run, I make sure to go by this giant bush. It’s pretty fun!  springtime-bougainvillea-houston bougainvillea-houston-spring The bougainvillea starts in someone’s yard and grows over this metal archway over the sidewalk. There’s kind of a hostile dog behind the fence in the owner’s yard, so it’s more peaceful take photos when he’s inside, but he eventually got bored of me and lay down for a nap. houston-bougainvillea bougainvillea bougainvillea-texas I hope you’re having a nice week – and I hope that spring is springing wherever you are!

    Hello Emily, I stayed once in a little whitewashed cottage in Stinsons Beach, California. You had to duck under the bougainvillea to get in & out. I t was so glorious & something I remember every time I see any, as now in your beautiful pictures.
