Bougainvillea ‘La Jolla’ is a compact, evergreen shrub known for its vibrant red/fuchsia bracts and dark green foliage. Because it is more compact, it can be grown as a mounding shrub or a small vine. Excellent for use as an espalier, screen, hedge, container, or groundcover. Best in full sun. It has moderate to low water needs; prefers deep but infrequent watering. Let the soil dry out between irrigations. Grows best in well-draining, slightly acidic soil. Deer-resistant. Cold hardy to 25°F.
