bougainvillea

BOUGAINVILLEA

The Bougainvillea is another one of my favorite plants. Although Bougainvillea can be quite controversial due to sharp thorns it is one of the most colorful plants in the landscape.

 

 

CAESALPINIA MEXICANA

CAESALPINIA MEXICANA

More commonly known as the Mexican Bird of Paradise and sometimes called the Yellow Bird of Paradise. This is another outstanding plant for any desert landscape.

 

 

Palo Verde

PALO VERDE

The Palo Verde comes in several different species and new hybrid varieties. My favorite is the Cercidium Preacox or the Sonoran Palo Verde.
