At what temperature will bougainvillea be frozen to death?

1. How many degrees will you freeze to death?

Under normal circumstances, the winter temperature should be maintained at around 5℃, so that Bougainvillea can survive the winter normally. However, if the breeding temperature is below 0℃ for a long time, it will be frozen to death. Short-term low temperature can easily cause frostbite, but it will not be frozen to death.

In addition, whether it will be frozen to death is not only related to the temperature, but also to the climate in which it is raised. If the plant is exposed to direct cold wind for a long time and has no sunlight, it will be more likely to be frozen to death. But if there is no cold wind and sufficient sunshine, it will not easily freeze to death. Sometimes, even if the temperature is around 5℃, if the climate is unstable, there is still a chance of freezing to death. Therefore, during the winter, don’t just pay attention to the temperature, but also pay attention to other aspects.

2. Winter maintenance

1. Bring the plant indoors: When the outdoor temperature is below 5°C, it should be moved indoors as soon as possible. In addition, the location where it is placed should not be subject to cold winds and should be able to receive a certain amount of sunlight.

2. Anti-freeze: When the temperature is not high enough, cover it with a film or cover the flowerpot with cotton cloth, which can also reduce the chance of the plant being frostbitten.
