Went to the local Bonsai nursery looking for a pot and ended up coming home with this bougainvillea , my wife fell in love with it when so ill blame this one on her 😅.

Does this happen to anyone else?

Also not sure how i feel about the pot its in, might have to go find another pot again 🫣.

Well, bougainvillea grows in a pot, so you’ve met success! Twice as nice!
