Bougainvillea (Pink) - Live Plant

Bougainvillaea in the garden offers green foliage year-round and brilliant blooms from winter to summer.
Bougainvillaea plants need support to cover a wall, fence, or another area. Create rows of wire or string against the surface that you want to be covered. Tuck the bougainvillaea branches behind this guidance support at regular intervals.

Planting And Care

• Irrigate only when the plants start to wilt and the soil is dry.
• The vines do need food. Fertilize your bougainvillaea every month in spring and early summer.
• You will want to use a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer at half the normal dosage.
• Pruning is part of the work if you are caring for bougainvillaea in the garden.
• Keep your eye out for dead wood and remove it as it appears
• Save severe cutbacks for a time after the bougainvillaea has flowered.
• You can prune late in the fall or very early in spring.
