Bougainvillea is a popular choice for home potted plants . It is not only suitable as an exquisite indoor potted plant, but can also grow into a luxuriant flowering tree in the outdoor courtyard. Bougainvillea is relatively simple to care for and has a long flowering period. If you master basic care techniques, you can keep it blooming all year round. But what if the bougainvillea doesn’t bloom? 1. Pruning branches Controlling branch growth is essential to promoting flowering of bougainvillea. Too many branches will cause nutrients to be consumed by the leaves, affecting flowering. Pruning can be done when the temperature is suitable to remove branches that are too dense, too long or too thin. 2. Flower pruning Pruning the remaining flowers in time after they have faded can not only save nutrients for the plants, but also reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests. 3. Pruning environment Pruning should be done in a well-ventilated environment to keep the plants healthy. 4. Control water to promote flowering It is a common method to stimulate flowering of bougainvillea by controlling water. One month before flowering, combine sufficient light with appropriate reduction of watering to allow the plant to feel slight drought and promote flower bud differentiation. 5. Lighting management Bougainvillea prefers full sun, and no matter how the seasons change, you should make sure it gets enough light to promote flowering. 6. Fertilization strategy Since bougainvillea may bloom throughout the year, fertilization should be considered comprehensively. During the period from bud formation to blooming, use phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote flowering; after the flowers bloom, replace them with multi-element compound fertilizers in time to support the continued growth and flowering of the plants. In summary, to make bougainvillea bloom, it is necessary to comprehensively control branches, water, light and fertilization. Through these measures, we can ensure that the bougainvillea will be in full bloom from spring to winter, presenting a gorgeous scene.
