I put several tropicals in my basement for the winter and treat them poorly, making them go into a non-feezing dormancy. Perhaps it could work with a Bougainvillea. When I see pictures of some island cottage draped in the stuff, I always want to try one.<br /><br />Les @ A Tidewater GardenerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912410521681649455.post-55128284247284593522011-12-06T14:43:13.225-06:002011-12-06T14:43:13.225-06:00What great timing Greggo - I have two Bougainville...What great timing Greggo - I have two Bougainvilleas that are about three years old and although thriving foliage wise (and size!!), no blooms for 3 years except a few at the top this year. They are in fact growing "out of control". I have never pruned them (didn't know I should) so I was about to dig them up and turf them out - then saw this post! Now I will follow your demo and pot them and put them on my back patio where they will get lots of sun - and see what they do.

I said that because here they sometimes don't get attention, those in posts above grounds are just there and flower the whole year. We just prune them when they become too bushy or let the soil dry longer for them to bloom. Drought will induce them to bloom. When directly planted in the soil they get so big and unwieldy. I love the color orange, but i still prefer the all white, or the red and white in one plant.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912410521681649455.post-18677969849555156332011-12-05T17:54:43.287-06:002011-12-05T17:54:43.287-06:00I am so jealous!

Next year I'm going to get one, and keep it in the pot in the ground! I'm still not into digging things up, being lazy and all, but I love them so much it might be worth it!
