Bougainvillea (Bougainvillea spectabilis)

The Bougainvillea (Bougainvillea spectabilis) is a vibrant, sun-loving plant admired for its colorful bracts in shades of magenta, orange, or white, which surround its small, inconspicuous flowers. This rooted start in a 3-inch pot is perfect for nurturing into a stunning ornamental plant.

Lighting: Requires full sun to thrive and produce its signature bright blooms. Place it in the sunniest spot available, ideally receiving 6–8 hours of sunlight daily.
Humidity: Adapts well to a range of humidity levels but prefers drier conditions. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
Care Tips: Bougainvillea needs well-draining soil and should dry slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with a high-phosphorus fertilizer to encourage blooming.

Note: Bougainvillea is highly susceptible to stress and may drop leaves in response to changes like repotting, relocation, or overwatering. Minimize stress by keeping conditions stable and allowing the plant time to adjust. With patience and proper care, your Bougainvillea will reward you with vibrant, cascading beauty!
