Purple Colour Bougainvillea (Kagoj Phool) Flower Plant

Product Features and Variety

The Bougainvillea, commonly known as Kagoj Phool (Paper Flower), is a resilient, sun-loving tropical shrub or climber prized for its spectacular, long-lasting color. This variety is highly adaptable and thrives in hot, sunny conditions across almost all Indian climates and soil types.

• Variety: Purple Colour Bougainvillea.
• Type: Shrub or Climber Plant/Tree. The plant can be trained onto a support structure or maintained as a compact bush in a container.
• Size: 1-2 Feet Height.

The Flower: Vibrant Purple Bracts

The Bougainvillea's visual appeal comes from its vibrant, paper-thin structures called bracts, which surround the small, white, true flowers. The Purple Bougainvillea produces a magnificent cascade of purple bracts that cover the plant, creating a striking and long-lasting floral display, particularly during the dry, hot seasons.

Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight Needs

• Sunlight: Requires full, direct sunlight (at least 6 or more hours per day) for optimal growth and prolific flowering. Insufficient sun will result in poor blooming.
• Air Circulation: Ensure the plant is placed in a location with good air movement.

Watering and Soil

• Soil: Plant in well-draining soil. A slightly acidic to neutral garden mix enriched with organic matter is recommended.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top two inches of soil are completely dry. Bougainvillea thrives best under slightly dry conditions, which encourages more blooms; avoid constant wetness or waterlogging.
• Fertilization: Use a high-potassium or balanced fertilizer sparingly during the growing season. Excessive nitrogen promotes leaf growth over flower production.

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plant is protected and well-ventilated during transit, guaranteeing you receive a healthy, genuine variety plant.
