Very impressed with my Bougainvillea. It arrived ready to hang up right out of the box. It turns out to be bigger than I was expecting and kind of put my other hanging baskets to shame. It looks really beautiful on my small apt patio and I enjoy looking at it from my computer area inside. I almost killed my cat with an Easter Lily so now I'm buying silk plants. From 10 feet you cannot tell that it's not real. Would be lovely hanging over a porch.
