I finally understood the effects of regular watering and infrequent watering, you water regularly if you want the plant to grow fast and big, and once it is the right size for you, you hold back watering to encourage blooming! Many thanks Nell!

Hi Nell, I'm a long time subscriber and "liker" of your videos. I've also dropped a number of comments here and there. I never thought when I started that I would develop a plant addiction, but at my stage now, I think I need an intervention! I already have a number of exotic succulents and tropicals, including both types of "Desert Rose" and my prize an approximately 6' tall "Traveler's Palm" (Ravanala Madagascariensis). These are indeed dramatic tropicals and should be part of every serious gardener's collection. My next plant will definately be a bougainvillea, but I can't decide what color! It's now June 17, 2023 and within a month, I'll definately get a "starter" plant that I plan to keep many years. In the meantime, keep the good videos coming! 🪴🌴

You should see the ones in Afirca (Kenya). This is the classic colour which I have here at home in southern Italy, but in Kenya you get red, orange, yellow and white bougainvillea, as well as a variegated flower (which is not as common). There's even a farm there which is now selling bougainvillea confetti, which is of course much better than the paper stuff.

And they are growing very very well, lots of green vines, leaves and thorns...but no flowers. I have vines that are climbing to 6 feet. They had some flowers at first when planted, but no flowers right now. When should I shape them ? Do I pick one or two vines to do the climbing ? Would love to have some flowers in 2 weeks, any suggestions ? Thanks ! Chip in NC.
@JoyUsGarden8 жыл бұрын
Hi - Bougainvilleas don't like to have their roots disturbed & like to be planted in their grow pots. If you take them out, they may not be very happy so that could be 1 reason. They like sun & heat to flower. Also, it can take them a while to establish before flowering. You can shape them a bit in early fall if needed. Mine were large & established so I pruned them at least 3 times a year. As to the climbing question, it depends on what their purpose is & what you want them to do. Nell

(Even despite the little slit openings that are made.) Remaining in that underground pot...will it be able to grow & flourish into those tallish tree-type trunks like the one in this video? Wouldn't it eventually topple over in a wind with such a weak base?
@JoyUsGarden8 жыл бұрын
It's best to slit the sides & the bottom +Sylvia Catalano & then plant it like you normally would. Bougainvilleas don't like to have their roots disturbed so this is the best way to do it. I was a professional gardener for 20 years & always had great success planting them this way. It won't topple in the wind because the whole root ball will be underground. Hope that helps! Nell

I'm on my second bougainvilla. Both bloomed for a time after having been planted but now I have very little growth. It was planted beside a wooden fence. It is very sunny and brutally hot by the fence which is like five feet or six feet from the road. I put my old coffee grounds on the plant. It came with some fertilizer in the pot. I put miracle grow on it too. The plant put out a little growth. The blooms dropped off. It is doing NOTHING. It really is a BIG BABY of a plant, a BRAT, and I feel like throwing this one away too. I'm willing to put up with big thorns just to get the awesome BLOOMS, but all I get is nothing. And maybe it doesn't like to be watered. WTF?? This plant is embarrassing me because it refuses to GROW or BLOOM. Makes me MAD!!!!!

Obviously, location has a lot to do with the success of blooming. It would behoove us to know your location. After all what works in your area, most likely would not work in mine..which is the North Atlantic states ...NYC. I have done most everything i have read about them and yet because of my area they seem to be in a 'retarded' state, but when i bring them indoors coming Fall, that is when they start blooming. I just wished it was reversed. So my conclusion is that in some areas they bloom on short days. mine here in the Summer get more than 6 hrs of sun. like I said, what works for your location may not work in mine.
