Bougainvillea Not Reblooming: Sun, Water, and Fertilizer Fixes

Bougainvillea blooms on new growth in full sun (8+ hours). If yours is all green, check:

Sun: Must have 8 hours direct.
Water: Deep soak weekly if no rain; avoid constant wet feet.
Fertilizer: High nitrogen (lawn runoff) causes leafy growth, no blooms. Use bloom‑booster (high P/K) or composted manure.

Side‑dress with composted manure, ensure full sun, and watch for colorful bracts to return.
