1. Watering: Let's talk hydration – because even bougainvillea needs their daily drink. But don't drown our flamboyant friend in the water, okay? Think of it like giving it a tropical cocktail, not a botanical bath in the fountain of youth.
2. Light: Our bougie superstar loves soaking up the spotlight – in the form of full sun, that is. It's like giving it front-row seats to a botanical fashion show – bright, bold, and absolutely fabulous.
3. Temperature: Keep it warm and toasty with temperatures between 60-90°F (15-32°C). It's like creating a tropical paradise in your backyard – without the sunscreen or the sand in your swimsuit.
4. Fertilizing: Give it a little boost with some plant food during the growing season, but don't overwhelm it with attention. We're talking about nourishing your plant, not turning it into a botanical drama queen (although, let's be honest, it already is).
5. Pruning: If your Bougainvillea plant starts getting a bit too wild and unruly, give it a trim. It's like sending it to the botanical salon for a makeover – refreshing and rejuvenating.
6. Pest Control: Keep an eye out for any pesky pests trying to crash the bougie party. Ain't nobody has time for uninvited guests, especially when they're messing with your botanical glam!
