Bougainvillea Scarlet O'Hara (Bougainvillea 'Scarlet O'Hara')

Scarlet O'Hara is the diva of the family and knows it - huge flushes of vivid scarlet-red bracts that can swallow a fence whole, delivered with vigour and swagger through the warm months. If you want the boldest red on the street, this is it.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Bougainvillea Scarlet O'Hara

✔ Blazing scarlet bracts - among the most intense reds in the genus.

✔ Vigorous cover - clothes fences, walls and pergolas quickly.

✔ Wave after wave - repeat flushes across the warm season.

✔ Loves hard conditions - heat, drought and coastal wind fuel the show.

✔ Long-lived - decades of colour from one planting.

🏡 How to Use Bougainvillea Scarlet O'Hara in Your Garden

✅ Statement fences - the classic red cascade over rendered walls.

✅ Pergolas & carports - fast flowering shade cover.

✅ Big pots, big impact - the 300mm size delivers instant colour; clip to size.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Position: Full sun, frost-free; give it room or a firm pruning plan.
  • Spacing: 3m apart on structures.
  • Best Planting Time: Spring to early autumn.
  • Watering & Care: Establish, then water sparingly. Prune firmly after each flush to contain vigour and multiply the next display; feed lightly with potash-rich fertiliser.

❔ FAQs About Bougainvillea Scarlet O'Hara

How do I keep such a vigorous plant tidy?
One rule: prune straight after every colour flush. It flowers on new wood, so regular cutting means more colour, not less.

Will it damage my fence?
It scrambles rather than roots into structures - sturdy wires or a trellis carry the weight safely.

Cold tolerance?
Frost burns it. In marginal areas grow against a hot north wall or in a large pot moved to shelter.
