USDA Hardiness Zones: Bougainvilleas, including 'Elizabeth Angus', generally thrive in warm climates. They are typically considered hardy in USDA hardiness zones 9-11. This means they can tolerate mild winters, but they are vulnerable to frost and freezing temperatures.
Frost Sensitivity: If temperatures drop below freezing, bougainvilleas can suffer damage or even die. Therefore, in areas with colder winters (below zone 9), it's best to grow them in containers so they can be brought indoors during the winter months.
