Bougainvillea is my favorite. Because they dont need anything )) All i do is some shaping and controlling only.

loosing a lot of flower pedals

This is great information for a mature Bougainvillea.

Ok. So the take away is....don't give them too much water, don't fertilize, and don't prune. However, what about "pinching back the tips"? I've heard that will stimulate new colorful bract/blooms. Your thoughts?

great education with a hint of humour...cute👍

Hi... Living in Las Vegas my bougainvillea has to be cut back each winter due to frost damage. I get flowers and good growth, but the plant is also extremely, "thorny" i.e., extreme blood letting. Any suggestions to help make this yearly dance a little less dangerous? Cheers!
-
I want mine thorny. That's why I planted it next to my fence.
-
hahahaha i like the end when you put your face through the plant so funny lol

Great video. I do a lot of plant videos as well and I have to say that your information is top notch as well as the presentation. Great work! Your information about how to promote blooms is new to me, so thank you. Always learning with these plants.

Funny how your the only person on YouTube saying NOT to prune your boogie back. Now I'm confused.
