by aditya abhishek

Introduction

Bougainvillea is a genus of flowering plants. It is often grown as a gardening plant in warm climates. Bougainvillea came from South America. 

Location

Bougainvillea needs a lot of sunlight to bloom, so make sure you choose a location where the plant will receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight every day. 

Pruning

Regular pruning is essential for maintaining the health and shape of your bougainvillea. The best time to prune is during early spring. 

Fertilizers

From spring to fall, keep adding fertilizers every month. Use phosphorus & potassium rich fertilizers. Use NPK (0:0:60) to promote flowering. 

Watering

Bougainvillea needs regular watering, but it's important not to overwater. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. 

Support Structure

It is a climbing plant that needs support to grow and bloom properly. Provide a trellis or other support structure for your bougainvillea to climb on.
