How to make a bougainvillea bonsai tree step by step (Page 2 ) | January 4, 2024

Watering the bougainvillea bonsai tree

Water when the potting soil begins to dry on the surface. It is important to keep the potting soil moist, but avoid waterlogging.

Remember to use osmosis water, as the presence of dissolved salts in the water could change the pH of the potting soil.

Pinching and pruning bougainvillea bonsai trees

Bougainvilleas are climbing shrubs and therefore have a tendency to form shoots at their apices, which in turn serve to cling to other trees.

To form the bonsai structure pinch more intensely on the acids, be able to distribute the “vigor” to the lower branches. Carry out pinching after flowering.

It is recommended to prune to two buds to strengthen the plant and stimulate the growth of new branches directly from the old trunk.
