When I lived in California I saw, even had Bougainvillea, it was pretty much everywhere it seemed, living here in
Omaha, N.E I have never ever seen it here. On my drive home from work today I drove past the local nursery as
I do everyday and read their neon banner that stated that Bougainvillea and Hibiscus are all now 70% off.
I was surprised as I did not know it could grow here. I was surprised when I went to California in April and saw
a yard with abundant Holly Hocks, all the 18 years I lived there I had never seen or knew it would grow there like
it does here in Nebraska.
You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because they have roses!
