Salman the picture is not clear but i think its Petunia Wave series.some years back i have planted in pots on my patio.its available at Peshawar mod, Islamabad.one thing for this kind of effect you will have to feed your plants with liquid NPK on fourth nightly bases.

Some people use even geranium for the purpose, though it may not have such profuse flowering as Petunia or Bougain....

Yes bush is different than the vine.but personally i don,t like bush.The one grafted is not actually bush but many color buds are grafted on the same root stock on the top of the stem so making a weeping effect.Grafted stuff is mostly imported from Thailand.
visit any bougainvillia thailand nurser web site & you will see so many grafted plants with delightful heads.
