The Bougainvillea 'Alexandra' is a vibrant Mediterranean climbing plant cherished for its brilliant floral display. However, it requires protection from frost, particularly in the Irish winter, where temperatures can plummet. This perennial must be sheltered or moved indoors during colder months to prevent frost damage and ensure its survival and flourishing for the coming spring.
