A beautiful flowering shrub that brings color to the streets of warm temperate regions. In cooler areas, bougainvillea should be grown in pots. To ensure flowering, it requires a rest period in winter. To do this, simply place it in a bright, cool place (cold greenhouse, unheated veranda, on a windowsill without a heater). Bougainvillea also requires a lot of water and fertilizer .
