Begonvil is an ornamental tree that grows in the form of a dwarf tree in the form of an ivy that can climb to a height of 10-15 meters, or in the case of a weaker flower pot such as a flower pot. It is a Mediterranean plant that grows quickly and is loved by its blooming flowers. The mainland is the central and northern tropical parts of the South American continent. Begonvil adapts very well to the Mediterranean coast because its rapid growth is at temperatures between 23 - 35 ° C and it is resistant to thirst.
They are usually pink, lilac purple, and rarely in red, white, yellow colors, and they have differentiated leaves in the form of flowers. Even when the flowers are thought of as flowers, when they dry in their branches, they have these flower petals that continue to maintain their color for some time.
Reproduction with steel is not easy, but it is not impossible on the island. The soil to be rooted is at least semi-organic so it is not recommended just for sand, just perlite for bougainville rooting.
When the air begins to warm up in the spring, it is about 10 cm. Cut out a very young but mature branch. Remove the lower leaves, just keep two or three sheets on top. Plant the water very well, very airy, not too wet. But it must be moist enough, because you will not. After suturing, you need to find a sealed container or put a nylon bag over it. It should not be exposed to the burning sun. Open and ventilate every two to three days, if there is too much humidity on the top surface of the soil, moisten it thoroughly with water, so continue to maintain. It takes 6 - 8 weeks to root. Do not keep it closed after rooting, slowly adjust to the sun.
If you want your bougainvil's entire house to be wrapped in a short time, you can apply two different knots at the following times to ensure a strong growth.
1- At the beginning of the winter, cut all the branches only at the ends. The resulting nutrient / energy in the branches will be pulled back to the main body, the main body and the roots. This will ensure that the spring develops with a violent explosion.
2- Once you have done the above, you should do this as well. At places where frost is not seen at the end of winter, where there is a slight frost, do a strong pruning at the beginning of spring. Thus the air grows strongly when warmed up and shows a severe growth after a few weeks.
Begonvalli we grow in the pot is enough to feed once when new leaves develop in the spring and once again after two months. The food must be a suitable food.
The more healthy grows of the grown in the garden, the more healthy way to feed should be preferred. At the beginning of each spring, the soil should be drained, the soil must be thrown and replaced with good garden soil and burnt cattle grains + pumice stone mixture.
