I'll start with the Bougainvillea, It's a beutiful vine once a year to look at,But that's where it's stops from a TD piont of view,The first thing it's will do it will add hours onto your job, it has large razor sharp spurs that will prick the living daylights out of you as you work and it's strong enough to bugger up a re direct,if you havent severed all vines properly, Then your got to drag this vine to the chipper were it fights all the way ripping and pricking all over as you go..lastly it's vindictive it will drag you into the chipper given half the chance,Apart from this it's a beutiful vine once a year but not up a Tree, IMO.
