Nama Tumbuhan Bugenvil (Bougenvillea spectabilis Wild) Taksonomi Tumbuhan Kingdom : Plantae Divisi : Magnoliophyta Kelas : Magnoliopsida Ordo : Caryophyllales Famili : Nyctaginaceae Genus : Bougenvillea Spesies: Bougenvillea spectabilis Wild. (Nurin Afrina, et al 2023) Definisi Umum Bougenville atau disebut sebagai “Bunga Kertas” merupakan salah satu jenis tanaman yang banyak kita jumpai di wilayah tropis seperti Indonesia. Bunga ini dinamakan bunga kertas karena memiliki kelopak dengan tekstur yang mirip kertas (Fadillah et al., 2020). Tanaman bunga kertas merupakan tanaman yang sangat cocok ditanam di daerah yang panas karena tanaman bunga kertas tidak memerlukan banyak udara. Tanaman bunga kertas termasuk ke dalam tanaman bunga tropis. Tanah yang digunakan untuk budidaya tanaman bunga kertas adalah tanah yang agak kering (Hannia et al., 2021). Tanaman bunga kertas biasanya dapat tumbuh mencapai 1-15 meter. Tekstur batang yang keras dan memiliki percabangan yang banyak dan juga ditumbuhi duri tajam pada bagian batang dan cabangnya. Bentuk bunganya berukuran kecil dan menyerupai terompet terdiri dari kelopak dan di lapisi dengan selundang bunga (Umaternate et al., 2022). Kandungan Kandungan senyawa aktif yang terdapat dalam tanaman bougenville berupa alkaloid, saponin, flavonoid, fenol, glikosida, tanin, furanoid, dan sejumlah kecol glukosa (Simatupang et al., 2021). Khasiat Khasiat atau manfaat dari tanaman bunga kertas (bougenville) adalah bunga dan daun bunga kertas memiliki aktivitas antioksidan, antiinflamasi, antiulcer, antidiabetes, antidiarrheal, dan antimikroba (Abarca, 2018). Cara Pengolahan Tumbuhan bugenvil secara tradisional dapat digunakan untuk mengobati bisul, hepatitis, dan keputihan dengan cara meminum air rebusan bunga bugenvil (Ambasalu et al., 2015).

(Nurin Afrina, et al 2023) General Definition Bougainvillea, also known as the “Paper Flower,” is a type of plant commonly found in tropical regions such as Indonesia. It is called the paper flower because its petals have a texture similar to paper (Fadillah et al., 2020). The paper flower plant is highly suitable for cultivation in hot regions because it does not require much water. It is classified as a tropical flowering plant. The soil used for cultivating the paper flower plant should be slightly dry (Hannia et al., 2021). Paper flowers typically grow to a height of 1–15 meters. The stems are hard, heavily branched, and covered with sharp thorns on both the stems and branches. The flowers are small and trumpet-shaped, consisting of petals and covered with a calyx (Umaternate et al., 2022). Components The active compounds found in bougainvillea include alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, phenols, glycosides, tannins, furanodis, and various glucose derivatives (Simatupang et al., 2021). Benefits The benefits of the bougainvillea plant include the fact that its flowers and leaves possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, antidiabetic, antidiarrheal, and antimicrobial properties (Abarca, 2018). Method of Preparation Traditionally, the bougainvillea plant can be used to treat boils, hepatitis, and vaginal discharge by drinking a decoction of bougainvillea flowers (Ambasalu et al., 2015).
