Planting and Location

>Light: Bougainvilleas need full sun to bloom profusely. Ensure it gets at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.

>Watering: They prefer slightly dry conditions between watering. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid waterlogging.

>Soil: Well-draining soil is crucial. A sandy or loamy mix with good drainage promotes healthy root growth
pH Level: Aim for a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5-6.5).

>Temperature and Humidity: 
Warm Conditions: Bougainvillea prefer temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing them to temperatures below 60°F (15°C).
Humidity: High humidity is beneficial. Aim for a humidity level of 60-80%. Use a humidifier or place the plant on a tray with pebbles and water to increase humidity.

>Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer regularly during the growing season (spring through fall). A 10-10-10 or similar fertilizer works well.

>Pruning: Bougainvilleas benefit from regular pruning to maintain shape and encourage flowering. Prune after each blooming cycle to control growth and shape.

>Pests and diseases: Watch for pests like aphids and caterpillars. Treat with insecticidal soap if necessary. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.

>Winter care: Bougainvilleas are sensitive to frost. In colder climates, bring potted plants indoors or provide protection during winter.
