1939 Blossoming Purple Bougainvillea Florida

This vibrant 1939 postcard showcases the blossoming beauty of purple bougainvillea—a flowering favorite that quickly became a staple of Florida’s tropical charm. Thriving in the state’s warm, sunny climate, bougainvillea added bold color to gardens, resorts, and roadways across the region. By the late 1930s, it was a familiar sight to visitors exploring Florida’s blossoming towns and scenic byways. This card captures the elegance and romance of Old Florida in full bloom, framed by one of its most iconic flowering vines.

This linen postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
