How to grow bougainvillea in winter

How to grow bougainvillea in winter

1. Move indoors

In winter, the temperature outside is very low, which is not conducive to the growth of bougainvillea. Therefore, it is best to move it indoors to a warmer room for maintenance. During this period, it is best to keep the temperature above 8°C. This will allow it to survive the cold winter more smoothly.

2. Reduce watering

Because the evaporation in winter is relatively small and the growth of plants is relatively slow, the water demand will be reduced. At this time, you should reduce the frequency of watering and keep the soil slightly dry.

3. Suspend fertilization

Also, because the plant grows relatively slowly at this time, there is basically no need to add additional nutrients to it. At this time, you can stop fertilizing to prevent it from being damaged by fertilizer. Wait until the weather warms up and it starts growing again before you start fertilizing.

4. Appropriate exposure to light

The light intensity in winter is very weak, so it is best to place it in a place with good lighting. This will allow it to receive a certain amount of sunlight so that it can bloom normally.

5. Prevent aphids

In winter it is susceptible to infestation by aphids. You can prevent this pest by spraying it with a small amount of low-concentration liquid and increasing ventilation appropriately.
