1. Appearance characteristicsThe flowering time of Bougainvillea is related to the region. In the south, it mostly blooms in winter and spring, while in the northern greenhouses it blooms from March to July. Its bracts resemble petals, are purple or magenta in color, and have three bracts arranged in a triangular shape. But the actual flowers grow inside the bracts, and the flowers are very small and not easy to see. Its bracts have leaf-like patterns, so it is also called smooth bougainvillea. 2. Growth habitsBougainvillea is native to Brazil and grows well in warm and humid climates. If the air is too dry, it will go dormant. In daily maintenance, sufficient light needs to be provided, and watering should be appropriate. Do not let water accumulate in the pot. 3. Introduction of efficacyIn addition to its good ornamental value, bougainvillea can also be used as medicine. Its leaves have the effect of dispersing blood stasis and reducing swelling, and its flowers can promote blood circulation and regulate menstruation, and have a therapeutic effect on female menstrual disorders. However, its stems and leaves are poisonous, so do not eat them. 4. Shenzhen FlowerBougainvillea once won the Shenzhen city flower selection with an extremely high number of votes. Because of its beautiful appearance and easy cultivation, it is very suitable for planting in gardens or in potted plants at home. Shenzhen holds a flower show for it every year, which is also an annual event. |
