💡 Care Tip: Place your Royal Purple Bougainvillea in a sunny location with excellent drainage. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings, as constantly saturated soil can stress the roots. If the plant has been enclosed during shipping, gradually acclimate it to strong direct sunlight over several days. Provide a trellis or other support if you want to encourage climbing growth, or prune regularly to maintain a compact shrub-like form.
