Bougainvillea bounces back!


Bougainvillea bounces back!

This is my wife's Bougainvillea after some organic TLC over the winter. It spent the winter in the garage under somewhat low light conditions, but was fed a diet of worm castings and compost tea to keep it alive. Now that it is back outside, it has more blooms than it has ever had before. This was the first year that the plant was up-potted into organic potting soil when it was dormant over the winter and "weened" off of salt-based chemical plant foods. It is surely one "happy camper" right now in its' new organic home! ;-)
