Red Bougainvillea

10 years ago

I'm looking for a true red bougainvillea. I can buy most cheaply at the box stores here but can't find red. I don't want the fuchsia one or the orangey one. Can you recommend one and where to buy it? I was looking on-line at the varieties of Barbara Karst and San Diego Red. They both look red, but photos don't always show true color. Thanks for your help.
