| Thanks Gail My favourite is the White Cascade then Rosenka and the Orange ones. Gwen you cannot go by that colour, time of day, age of flowers, sunny or cloudy they all look different. As the flower ages it fades as you know thats the colour I prefer.. Rosenka just starting to flower, looks like this one was taken in the shade  Same plant a few weeks later taken in the sunshine  Both these pics were taken last year, amazing the difference. | |

| Yes it is BL much more noticeable with the pink and orange colours . Your row of Nonya's would be looking even better than when you posted pics before.  | |

| Spent a while googling Gwen for the name of your double pink/orange I have no idea sorry.
Do a google image on Bougainvillea Double Gold, Mahara Orange and Golden Dubloon..
There are so many Hybrids out there Gwen I cannot help you with the name of the Mauve one..
I do not grow either of them.. | |
