A Bougainvillea plant is seen in a village in Sirkabad, Purulia, West Bengal, India, on January 12, 2026. Bougainvillea, known locally as "Bagan Bilas," thrives in Purulia's warm, arid climate, blooming vividly from November to May. The brightly colored, paper-like parts are modified leaves (bracts). The plant thrives in harsh, dry, and hot environments, making it a powerful emblem of strength and survival against the odds. It serves as an official floral symbol or national flower in places like Guam and Grenada.
