Caring for a bougainvillea plant is essential for promoting its vibrant blooms and overall health.

Bougainvillea loves full sun. Aim for at least 5 to 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Increased sunlight typically results in more flowers. Water the plant thoroughly but allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. This usually translates to watering once a week during growth periods. Water the plant thoroughly but allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. This usually translates to watering once a week during growth periods.

Use a sandy or loamy mix that provides excellent drainage. Bougainvilleas do not thrive in waterlogged conditions. Use a balanced fertilizer (like 10-10-10) or one with higher potassium to encourage blooming. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring to early fall). Excess nitrogen can lead to more foliage than flowers. In colder climates, protect them from frost, ideally bringing them indoors when necessary. As a climbing plant, bougainvilleas may need support. Train them on trellises, fences, or other structures to guide their growth.
