Beata, I grew up with bougainvillea in my back yard, and I always think of my Dad the gardener when I see it. Thank you for the lovely reminder, and the colorful haiku series. Love that Ecclesiastes verse! Congrats for your win. Grace and peace ~ John

I love them. Planted them around the perimeter of my house in Johannesburg. Beauty and safety from intruders.
