Ships semi bare root- the rootball is securely plastic wrapped. General Bougainvillea is an extremely drought tolerant flowering vine. Though bougainvillea is often seen with a large self supporting trunk in a bonsai setting its true nature is to climb over and prick! Anything in its path. In warm climates Bougainvillea is a prolific grower, one at the Thomas Edison home in Ft. Myers has totally overtaken a 40′ pine. Bougainvillea leaves reduce readily and because the colored part of the flower is actually a modified leaf known as a bract the nodes between the flowers can be reduced with training. Bougainvillea can take total defoliation or a 80% root pruning with no problem given temperatures are nice and hot. Finally, the trick to get bougainvillea to bloom the best is to keep it dry – they will not flower in wet soil! Actual color of blooms!
