Botanical Name: Bougainvillea
Bougainvilleas are vining tropical plants native to South America. The plant is popular for their showy, papery bracts and can be grown trailing down from hanging baskets or supported against trellises. It is mildly toxic to pets but safe for humans.
Bougainvilleas are common spring and summer “annuals,” but can also be grown as houseplants. They tolerate full sun and drought conditions, but water deeply and allow it to dry out between waterings. They grow best in USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11, so they are strictly indoor plants during the cooler months and can survive outdoors during the warmer months. Severe pruning can be done after flowering in the late fall or early spring and reduce watering. Bougainvilleas will rebloom when exposed to bright light, moderate temperatures, and longer nights (spring conditions).
