The Bougainvillea is a kind of shrubs of the Nyctaginaceae family.
The first specimen was discovered by the botanist Philibert Commerson in Brazil during the expedition around the world led by the French explorer Louis Antoine de Bougainville. Commerson then pays tribute to Bougainville by naming the genus Buginvillaea, spelling subsequently rectified in Bougainvillea.

La Bougainvillea est une sorte d'arbustes de la famille Nyctaginaceae.
Le premier spécimen a été découvert par le botaniste Philibert Commerson au Brésil lors de l'expédition à travers le monde menée par l'explorateur français Louis Antoine de Bougainville. Commerson rend alors son hommage à Bougainville en nommant le genre Buginvillaea, l'orthographe étant ensuite corrigée et remplacée par Bougainvillea.
