Why is my bougainvillea not flowering? Expert advice to revive your plant

Pink and purple bougainvillea blooms with a green door.

Bougainvilleas are some of the best climbing plants, typically cascading over garden walls and fences with bright and brilliant flowers. These tropical-looking plants are prized for their long-flowering nature, often blooming for many months during summer if the growing conditions are right.

In smaller spaces, bougainvilleas can be grown in pots and trained to cover trellises or garden structures. Annually pruning your bougainvilleas will help to restrict their growth, keeping them compact and floriferous.
