Best Answer

Bougainvillea is the scientific name of the flowering plant commonly called bougainvillea.

Specifically, the plant in question carries the name of explorer Louis Antoine de Bougainville (November 12, 1729 - August 31, 1811), upon whose ship the first Europeans transported the plant from voyages to what is now Latin America. The plant is native to South America. The complete scientific name must include the particular species, of which Bougainvillea glabra and B. spectabilis particularly are well known.
