How to care for and manage bougainvilleaA small tip for life: introducing how to care for and manage bougainvillea and the plant cultivation experience of Bougainvillea glabra, the following is a detailed introduction for youBougainvillea symbolizes tenacity, because the petals are triangular, which makes people think of "triangle love" relationships, so don't send bougainvillea to your beloved goddess.Bougainvillea is also known as Bougainvillea glabra and leaf flower. The blooming period of bougainvillea is long, usually from April to October. In fact, as long as there is more than 7-8 hours of sunlight and a temperature between 15-30 degrees, the blooming period of bougainvillea can last for half a year. Bougainvillea also comes in many colors, with common ones being red, purple, pink, and white.The modern poem "Guest in Yuxi" mentions, "Ethereal notes floating in the air, bougainvillea in full bloom adorns the path." This indicates that bougainvillea represents auspiciousness.Is bougainvillea easy to care for? Actually, it is very easy to care for, but the climate in the north is not suitable, and overwintering is an issue! If conditions allow for surviving the cold winter, bougainvillea is very easy to care for!Bougainvillea is native to tropical Brazil. Due to its ornamental value, it is now cultivated in most countries around the world, including greenhouse pot cultivation in northern China (most of which are transported from the south), as it easily dies in winter. Bougainvillea needs to be in an environment above 5 degrees Celsius to survive the winter (this is why it is not commonly seen in the north, as it is not easy to overwinter). Bougainvillea is also heat-resistant and does not fear sunlight. No special care is needed in summer (no shading).Bougainvillea is a藤本木质灌木, so it can grow upwards without support during cultivation. The main stem is thick, the roots are straight, and the lateral roots are also well-developed. When planting bougainvillea in a pot, it usually doesn't need to grow very tall. The main root should be cut to promote the growth of lateral roots and also to limit the upward growth of bougainvillea.Bougainvillea is a vine, which means that in a natural environment, it grows by攀附 large trees and prefers scattered light. Therefore, when growing bougainvillea, it should be placed in a sunny location, so it can grow vigorously. Remember not to place it in a dark area.How to care for and manage bougainvilleaBougainvillea prefers slightly acidic soil. When preparing the soil, some fully dried leaves can be added, as the leaves become acidic during decomposition. The proportion of leaves in the soil should not exceed half to prevent overheating from decomposition.The leaves of bougainvillea are very thin, which means they cannot store a large amount of nutrients. Therefore, when fertilizing bougainvillea, it is important to follow the principle of frequent but small applications. Fertilize once every half month, preferably using organic fertilizers (such as soybean cake, ripe soybeans, steamed bread crumbs, or a few drops of milk in the water). It is best not to use foliar fertilizers, as even a slight interruption in foliar fertilization can cause leaf drop or yellowing due to malnutrition. Only when the plant is in a diseased state can some foliar fertilizer be supplemented.Bougainvillea prefers a moist environment but is also drought-resistant. When watering, do not water until the soil is dry, and water until water flows out of the pot (in winter, just keep it slightly moist), but do not let it accumulate water.After the blooming period, it is important to prune bougainvillea. The branches of bougainvillea grow very densely and need to be thinned to allow light to reach the interior and increase ventilation, making the branches stronger. If you don't know how to prune, don't worry, you can follow Lao Li, who will learn pruning techniques with everyone later. Pruning includes thinning, shortening, and shaping, which is also considered shortening.The above is the complete content on how to care for and manage bougainvillea and the cultivation methods and techniques for Bougainvillea glabra.
