Bougainvillea Care Guide
Bougainvillea, with its vibrant paper-like bracts, is a stunning sun-loving plant perfect for adding a tropical flair to gardens, patios, and balconies. While known for its dramatic display, it's surprisingly low-maintenance when given the right conditions. Here’s how to keep your bougainvillea thriving.
Light & Temperature
Full Sun is Essential: Bougainvillea requires at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for prolific blooming. The more sun, the better.
Warmth: It thrives in warm temperatures (above 60°F or 15°C). It is not frost-tolerant.
Watering
Drought-Tolerant: Prefers to dry out between waterings. Overwatering is a common mistake.
Deep, Infrequent Watering: Water thoroughly until water runs from the drainage holes, then allow the top few inches of soil to dry completely before watering again.
Reduce in Winter: During cooler months or dormancy, water very sparingly.
Soil & Potting
Well-Draining Soil is Critical: Use a standard potting mix with added perlite or sand, or a cactus/succulent mix.
Drainage Holes: Ensure pots have excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
Prefers Being Pot-Bound: Blooms best when its roots are slightly cramped. Avoid repotting into a too-large container.
Feeding & Fertilizing
For Best Blooms: Feed with a high-phosphorus fertilizer (e.g., a "bloom booster" formula with a ratio like 10-20-10) every 2-4 weeks during the active growing season (spring to early autumn).
Avoid Excess Nitrogen: Too much nitrogen promotes leafy growth at the expense of flowers.
Pruning & Training
Prune After Bloom Cycles: The best time to prune is right after a flush of flowers fades. Bougainvillea blooms on new growth.
Be Bold: Don't be afraid to prune heavily to shape the plant, control size, or encourage branching.
Wear Gloves: The thorns can be sharp, so protective gloves are recommended.
Overwintering (for Cool Climates)
Bring Indoors: Move potted plants indoors before the first frost.
Provide Light: Place in the sunniest window possible (south-facing is ideal). Growth may slow, and leaves may drop.
Reduce Water & Stop Fertilizer: Keep the soil mostly dry and do not fertilize until spring.
Troubleshooting Tips
No Flowers? Likely causes are insufficient sun, overwatering, pot too large, or too much nitrogen fertilizer.
Yellow Leaves: Often a sign of overwatering or poor drainage.
Leaf Drop: Can be caused by a sudden change in location/temperature, under-watering, or low light when moved indoors.
In summary, the golden rules for a spectacular bougainvillea are: maximize sun, minimize water, and don't be shy with the pruning shears. With this simple care, it will reward you with a breathtaking cascade of color for months on end.
