Bougainvillea spectabilis, commonly known as Great Bougainvillea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Nyctaginaceae, native to Brazil. It is a vigorous, woody, evergreen vine or liana that can grow up to 12 meters in height. The plant is known for its vibrant, colorful bracts that surround its small, white flowers. It thrives in wet tropical climates and is often used in landscaping for its ornamental value.
Bougainvillea spectabilis requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and high humidity. Water the plant when the top layer of soil dries out, but avoid waterlogging. This plant can tolerate some drought once established. Regular pruning is necessary to maintain its shape and encourage blooming.
تربة
Bougainvillea spectabilis prefers well-draining loamy soil. Ensure the soil mix has good drainage to prevent root rot. A mix of garden soil, sand, and compost works well. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged.
سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
إعادة السمعة
Repot Bougainvillea spectabilis every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Carefully remove the plant from its current pot, trim any dead or damaged roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.

تشذيب
Prune Bougainvillea spectabilis regularly to maintain its shape and encourage blooming. Prune after the flowering period, removing dead or weak stems and cutting back overgrown branches. This will help promote new growth and more flowers.
تسمم
Bougainvillea spectabilis is generally non-toxic to pets and humans. However, the plant has thorns that can cause physical injury, so handle with care.
إضافي
