Plant Features

California Gold Bougainvillea Plants offer a strong vining habit with showy flowers that change from pale gold to orangey-bronze as they emerge and then mature. It is a flowering machine that puts out a big explosion of color, drop its bracts, flowers again, and repeats this all season long. California Gold is extremely heat and drought tolerant and attracts pollinators galore. Can be grown as a houseplant.

California Gold Bougainvillea Plant Care Instructions: Container plants do best with regular water and fertilizer. Established plants grown in the soil only need watered if it hasn’t rained for a couple of weeks. Plants cannot climb without stems being tied or attached to a support. If it freezes in your area, and you want to overwinter a container plant, simply cut it back to 24 inches and bring the pot inside the house. Find a spot that is close to an east, south or west facing window. Keep it back a couple feet from the window. Avoid placing it near any heating registers. Allow the soil to dry between waterings. Do not give it any fertilizer while inside as this is not a time for flowering.

Absolutely Beautiful!

I love bougainvillea, and the assortment of colors GrowJoy has to offer is top notch. These arrived packaged very well and were already thriving. They're small upon arrival, but with a little fertilizer, sunlight and water, you'll see an exceptional amount of growth within just a few weeks!

My Bougies

I just received my plants and was so excited to open it. I was so amazed and impressed how healthy the plants are and especially the packaging, very excellent. I don't have this kind of experience from other vendors. Thank You GrowJoy...

Beautiful!

I’m working on a "living wall” and have decided on one of every colored bougainvillea. GrowJoy ended up being my one stop shop. The selection amazing! Don’t let the 2” pot confuse you - the plants I received were 6”s tall and very healthy.

From Marta | April 09, 2020


Great care and pride in plants.

This is my number one online nursery. I am so impressed with their plants health and packaging. WOW! That’s all I can say. From all the online sites, this one is superior. I have so much more to buy. Oh yes, the prices are so good too.

Gold bougainvillea!

Always wanted to add gold rush to my collection. They love Texas heat but need winter protection. Plant was 7 in. with a small bloom. Slow and steady grower.

California Gold

Transplanted my Bougainvillea last week upon its arrival.  It is thriving in spite of the up and down Texas weather we've been having. Excited for it to grow and bloom.

Very well packed. I put it straight into the ground so hopefully it will take. They are tiny but should be beautiful when in bloom.

Had buds when it arrived. The buds are still buds and the plant is green after 1.5 weeks...so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Happy w/Bougainvillea

When I received the California Gold plants one of them did not make it through the shipping process..I contacted GrowJoy and although this plant was not available any more they replaced it in a timely fashion with a new plant of my choice..I was very happy

From Melissa | May 22, 2014


Awesome packaging

Disclaimer: I do NOT have a green thumb. However, my lovely California Gold Bougainvillea's appear to be flourishing and perhaps will have blossoms soon. The manner in which the small delicate plants arrived was incredible. The packaging was excellent and not a single leaf seemed upset with the travel. The root systems seem very delicate and with first batch I ordered, I damaged the roots. But, with this 2nd batch and my increased awareness and experience, they were successfully potted and have grown considerably.

California Gold Bougainvillea plants

Just received my 2 Ca. Gold Bougainvillea plants and was very impressed on the way they were packaged. I can't wait for them to grow. To my dismay, my DOG just pulled one out of it's container and ate it!!! So I ordered 3 more- Wish me luck, before I kill my DOG!
