Word has it that the crown of thorns placed on the brow of Jesus Christ was the bougainvillea. I believe it.

Ditto about bougainvilleas. The flowers fall/blow all over the place, the bush grows like a weed and is hard to prune because of the thorns. In fact, in California they are considered to be weeds, and they grow wild on the sides of the freeways.
Magnolias--they should be put in parks where they can grow into beautiful big trees. The little ones are ugly in shape. The flowers turn brown after one day, and you will be picking up leaves (of yours, and the neighbors' across the street or next to you) forever.
Depending on the prevailing wind, it may not be a problem; it may be a neighbors' problem. Our garage gets full of them from the tree across the street.
