🌺 Bougainvillea Care Guide

Light:
Bougainvillea loves full sunlight. Place it where it receives at least 5–7 hours of direct sun daily for best flowering.

Water:
Water moderately. Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry before watering again. Overwatering can reduce flowering and cause root rot.

Soil:
Use well-draining soil such as a mix of garden soil, sand, and compost. Good drainage is essential.

Temperature & Climate:
Thrives in warm tropical climates (18–35°C). It grows very well outdoors in warm regions.

Fertilizer:
Feed every 2–3 weeks during the growing season with a balanced or flowering fertilizer to promote blooms.

Pruning:
Prune regularly to control shape and encourage more branches and flowers.

Common Issues:
Watch for aphids, mealybugs, and leaf drop caused by excess water or low sunlight.

Tip:
Slight water stress and strong sunlight often encourage more colorful blooms.
