🌱 Bougainvillea Miss World – Care Guide

1. Light

• Needs full sun (6–8 hours daily) to produce maximum blooms.
• Without strong sunlight, flowering reduces significantly.

2. Watering

• Water moderately; allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry before watering again.
• Overwatering causes root rot and reduces flowering.

3. Soil

• Prefers well-draining soil; sandy or loamy mixes work best.
• Recommended mix: garden soil + cocopeat + sand + compost (40:30:20:10).

4. Fertilizer

• Feed once a month with a balanced fertilizer like 19-19-19.
• Use high-phosphorus fertilizer (such as 13-40-13) during the flowering phase.
• Add vermicompost every 2–3 months for healthy growth.

5. Pruning

• Prune after each flowering cycle to maintain shape and encourage new shoots.
• Remove dry or weak branches regularly.

6. Potting & Repotting

• Use a medium to large pot with multiple drainage holes.
• Repot every 2–3 years or when roots outgrow the container.

7. Temperature

• Thrives in warm climates and tolerates heat well.
• Protect from frost or extreme cold.

8. Pests

• Occasionally affected by mealybugs, aphids, or whiteflies.
• Treat with neem oil spray once a week if infestation appears.

9. Flowering Tips

• Keep the plant slightly root-bound for heavier blooms.
• Reduce watering slightly before the blooming season.
• Ensure maximum sunlight exposure.
