Plant Growing Tips

Where to Grow

Bougainvillea 'Purple Cascade' thrives in full sun. This variety is ideal for adding vibrant color to gardens, cascading over walls, or in large containers. It can also be trained to climb trellises or pergolas. Choose a location with well-draining soil and good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.

Climate

Bougainvillea 'Purple Cascade' prefers a warm, subtropical to tropical climate. It can tolerate light frost once established but should be protected from severe frost and cold winds. Optimal growth occurs at temperatures between 18-30°C. In cooler regions, consider growing it in a pot that can be moved indoors during winter.

Soil Type

Use well-draining soil for Bougainvillea 'Purple Cascade'. Sandy or loamy soils enriched with organic matter are ideal. While it can adapt to poorer soils, it will perform best in nutrient-rich conditions. Ensure the soil remains moderately moist but not waterlogged to prevent root rot.

Fertilizer

Fertilise your Bougainvillea 'Purple Cascade' with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring. During the blooming season, use a high-potassium liquid fertiliser to promote vibrant flowers. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilisers as they encourage foliage growth over flowers. Be cautious not to over-fertilise, as this can lead to root damage.
