How to grow bougainvillea more vigorously?

Bougainvillea is a plant that is easy to care for and blooms frequently. It is known as a "flowering machine" and a "flowering expert." This plant has many varieties, especially those that bloom diligently, with bright colors and great ornamental value. So how can we grow bougainvillea more vigorously?

1. The importance of temperature

Bougainvillea can be seen everywhere in the streets and parks of the south. They grow very lushly and can bloom profusely with almost no special management, forming spectacular sea of ​​flowers. This is largely due to the favorable temperature conditions. Especially some hard-flowering varieties, when the temperature remains above 15 degrees Celsius, they can bloom continuously, even all year round. Therefore, temperature control is very important for the maintenance of potted bougainvillea. Bougainvillea should be placed on an indoor balcony in winter to prevent the cold from damaging the plant. If the indoor temperature is high, bougainvillea will continue to bloom in winter.

2. The necessity of light

It is well known that bougainvillea requires more sunlight than roses. Sunlight is essential for its growth and flowering. If bougainvillea is kept indoors for a long time or placed in a corner where sunlight cannot reach, they may only grow leaves but not bloom. Therefore, it should be ensured that Bougainvillea can receive sunlight frequently and can bask in the sun all year round. Plenty of sunlight helps the plant to produce more flowers.

3. Water control techniques

If the bougainvillea has not bloomed by the flowering period, you can try to reduce the frequency of watering and let the soil in the pot dry for a few days. By controlling watering, you can sometimes encourage bougainvillea to bloom. An effective way to promote flowering of bougainvillea is to reduce the water supply appropriately and let it dry slightly.

4. The importance of fertilization

If the bougainvillea has not been fertilized for a long time, the nutrients in the potting soil may have been depleted, which will affect its flowering. This situation can be improved by changing the potting soil and using fertile soil. Bougainvillea loves fertilizer . Regular application of compound fertilizer or other types of fertilizer can promote it to bloom more colorful and eye-catching flowers.

The above are some key points for daily care of bougainvillea. If you want to grow bougainvillea, it is recommended to start with the hard-flowering varieties.
