The bougainvillea needs a lot of sun
Where bougainvilleas feel most comfortable
The Bougainvillea is considered not very easy to cultivate plant - at least in this country. In order to accommodate the color-propitious rank beauty, the right location is a decisive factor. Read below what you should be aware of.
It must be warm and sunny
Since the bougainvillea comes from the Andean region between Ecuador and Brazil, a lot of sun and heat is a must for them. Therefore, you should treat it to a south-facing location where the sun can shine in unaffected as much as possible at any time of the day. This can be on a large living room window or, at best, in the conservatory and outside on the terrace in summer.
So the best Bougainvillea location is:
In summer on stone walls
If you put your bougainvillea outdoors in the summer, we recommend that you let it grow on a heat-retaining house or terrace wall. This way, she can still linger on the radiant heat even after sunset - in addition she is a magnificent wall decor.
