Bougainvillea spectabilis
"... Bougainvillea flowers are small yellow white waxy tubes that aren't very impressive. However they are surrounded by three 2.5-5.1 cm (1-2 inch) long papery bracts and it is these that are responsible for the colorful displays for which this genus is famous..." http://www.floridata.com/ref/b/boug_spp....
