It's so frustrating when the bougainvillea doesn't bloom. Instead of envying others, it's better to let it get more sun.

However, after praising the bougainvillea, we still have to get back to business. Some flower lovers told Huahua that they were very envious of the bougainvillea blooming vigorously in other people's homes, but for some reason, the bougainvillea in their own home did not grow a single bud? Very distressed.

Today, Huahua will tell you why the bougainvillea we have at home is not blooming even though it is growing well.

If the branches and leaves of your bougainvillea grow vigorously but it just doesn't bloom, you should think about whether you regularly trim the branches of the bougainvillea? Potted bougainvillea grows very fast. If the side buds grow too fast and too much, they may absorb the nutrients needed for flowering, and the bougainvillea will inevitably not bloom.

Another function of pruning is to make the branches sprout faster. Only when more branches sprout can more flowers bloom, so pruning is quite important.

In addition to pruning, sunlight is also one of the reasons that ensure the flowering of bougainvillea. Think about why your bougainvillea does not bloom and you think you are not getting enough light. If bougainvillea is kept indoors for a long time, or in a cool place, it will have a certain impact on its flowering and growth. If there is insufficient light, the plant will inevitably not bloom, let alone bloom vigorously. Therefore, when you grow bougainvillea, try to place it in a place with sufficient light.

Another more important reason is watering. Plants inevitably need water during their growth process, but too much water will cause Bougainvillea to not bloom or bloom less. What should we do when we encounter this situation? Huahua has a little trick, which is to cut off the water for the bougainvillea.

How to cut off the water supply? In fact, the method is very simple. When watering, gradually reduce the frequency from once every three days to once every five days. Observe the leaves of the bougainvillea, and when the leaves slowly wilt, you can water them thoroughly. This method can effectively promote the growth of flower buds in Bougainvillea, and it will slowly bloom!

The last reason is insufficient fertilizer. Bougainvillea needs certain nutrients to ensure the quality of flowering. If there is insufficient fertilizer, it will of course not bloom. We can apply some organic fertilizer to bougainvillea on a daily basis, and apply some compound fertilizer when the flower buds emerge. Compound fertilizer can replenish the trace elements needed by the plants in time.

The above are the reasons why Bougainvillea does not bloom, summarized by Huahua. Do you all know it?
