I was thinking azalea, too, but I'm no plant expert.![]()
Calvin: You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.
I don't thin they are azaleas! We call other flowers azaleas!
I found they are Bouganvilla as Madhuri and tractatus said.
I am no plant expert too. I call all flowers, flowers just a few can name and all trees just treesI think I have to respect their identities but so sorry

They do look like Bouganvilla - I saw those in CA, when I was out ther years ago. They grow abundantly along, or in the middle of some highways. They are quite beautiful. I think I also saw them growing wild in the Bahamas.
Sophia, this one particular bush you have posted is quite lovely - I love that shade of pink and the blooms look so papery and delicate. I bet they smell heavenly.
Did you look up Bouganvilla on Wikipedia, to see if they do look the same?

Wow! I've never seen Bouganvill in this size. Where I live, the weather is cold, of course not like Canada and Alaska, but this flower can't grow outdoors, just indoors and most people have at thier home. In warmer parts near Persian gulf, there are huge kind of these outdoors with beautiful view. I love them especially in different colors.
