Flower of the Day - Bougainvillea, also known as Paper flower
Message - Radiance, brilliance
Bougainvillea are climbing plants originally from tropical South America. They flower during Summer, and sometimes for many months afterwards as well. The actual flowers are the tubular centres. The colourful surrounding bracts (modified leaves at the base of a flower) may be brilliant crimson, white, carmine red, rose-violet, pale pink or white edged with pink.
