How often should bougainvillea be fertilized? Fertilization method and time

How often should bougainvillea be fertilized?

During the peak growth period of Bougainvillea, fertilizer must be applied regularly, every 7-10 days or so. After entering autumn and the weather turns cooler, fertilizer can be applied every half a month or so. The growth rate slows down in winter, so you can use some compound fertilizer appropriately to help the plant survive the winter better.

What fertilizer to use for bougainvillea

1. Bougainvillea is a relatively fertilizer-loving flower. Fertilizer is indispensable during the cultivation period. When fertilizing, farmyard manure and organic fertilizer should be used as the main fertilizers. You can also use some compound fertilizers in combination, which can help the plants grow more vigorously.

2. You can also apply some fertilizers you prepare yourself, put domestic waste into a bucket, seal it, and place it under the sun for half a month to complete the production.

Bougainvillea fertilization method

1. When applying base fertilizer to bougainvillea, you can mix the fertilizer directly into the soil, and be careful to spread it as evenly as possible. When applying topdressing, you need to dilute it first, and then be careful not to make the concentration too high, otherwise the roots of the bougainvillea will rot.

2. When fertilizing bougainvillea, be careful not to splash the fertilizer onto the surface of the leaves. Loosen the soil before fertilizing so that the fertilizer effect can be better released.
