From the thorny vines to the radiant bracts of this beloved species, the SciTech Collectives present to you the Philippines’ very own version of the Japanese Cherry Blossom, the Bougainvillea!

The vibrant Bougainvillea, belonging to the Nyctaginaceae family, is a native flower to South America; commonly found in Brazil, Peru, and other countries across the world, but what makes it such a classic?

Many admire these for their vivid and alluring presentation, though only some come to realize that those parts are not really "flowers." The colorful hues—ranging from orange, red, purple, and fuchsia to soft white and yellow—are actually bracts, which are modified leaves that surround the plant’s understated blossoms. This sly botanical trick draws pollinators, such as butterflies and bees, while amusing the human eye!

This essence of royalty can grow up to 10-40 feet tall, depending on the species and cultivation. It can lead to several meters per year, assuming that the conditions are ideal.

The Bougainvillea can be easily called a gardener’s dream. Its flexibility is one of its applauding traits. It thrives in poor soil and can stand up to dry seasons. For those with a green thumb, it is a treasured plant to grow in your garden that can be trained to surge from hanging pots, climb trellises, or make dense edges.

Nonetheless, it does come with its whims as a considerably challenging flora. Its sharp thorns can sometimes be unwelcoming to those who are attracted to have contact with them. The Bougainvillea is not fond of being overwatered either, with it being considered a low-maintenance plant. Pruning becomes necessary not only to keep the plant controllable but also to encourage more blooms.

Besides its pleasing appeal, the Bougainvillea also holds deep cultural significance within many parts of the globe! In Mediterranean countries, it symbolizes passion and beauty, while in the areas of South America, it is often associated with resilience and festivity. Its capability to prosper, even in the harshest conditions, served as a metaphor for adaptability and strength.

This flowering plant first caught the attention of European explorers in the 18th century. French botanist Philibert Commerçon, along with explorer Louis Antoine de Bougainville, is one of those who brought this lustrous plant to the European shores. Named in honor of the expedition’s headman, the discovered species soon set foot into fame for its graceful appearance and striking colors.

For every petal and thorn, Bougainvillea whispers the poetry of nature, that with the right environment and enough resilience, we can thrive with our beauty in the most unexpected ways.

Arellano University (AU) Chiefs and Colegio de San Juan de Letran Knights clashed in a tense NCAA Season 101 Men’s Basketball quarterfinals on November 28, with the Knights narrowly defeating the Chiefs, 77-69, at the FilOil EcoOil Centre, San Juan.

The first quarter opened with Arellano controlling the ball, quickly establishing a lead. Gelo Demetria tipped in a rebound after Anthony Borromeo missed a three-pointer, giving the Chiefs a 20-17 lead. John Cyril Hernal also capitalized on a technical free throw following an unsportsmanlike foul by Titing Manalili, keeping AU in front.

In the second quarter, Letran regained momentum, swinging the score in their favor. By halftime, the Knights led 39-31 after Andrei Acop of Arellano committed an unsportsmanlike foul, allowing Letran a chance to score from a technical free throw. The Knights’ precision and composure began to take a toll on the Chiefs’ defense.

The third quarter continued to favor Letran as they maintained control of the game. Despite T-mc Ongotan’s desperate attempt for a three-pointer as the shot clock wound down, the Knights extended their lead to 62-54. Fouls began to pile up for Arellano, with the Chiefs at five compared to Letran’s three, signaling mounting pressure.

The fourth quarter sealed the outcome as Ernjay Geronimo’s critical turnover effectively ended Arellano’s hopes of a comeback. Letran emerged victorious with a 77-69 win, advancing to the semifinals while the Chiefs’ season came to a close. Despite the loss, Ongotan stood out as Arellano’s Player of the Game, leading the Chiefs with an impressive 23 points.

Looking ahead, the Arellano Chiefs remain determined to bounce back stronger in the next season. With young talents showing promise and key players gaining experience from this season, the AU Chiefs aim to refine their composure in crucial moments and return to competition hungrier than ever.
