Assorted Bougainvillea (Standard) - Bougainvillea glabra
Grown as a standard, bougainvillea is lifted out of its usual role as a sprawling wall climber and turned into a clipped mophead on a single clear stem. Bougainvillea glabra is the species behind most reliable garden forms, flowering over a long warm season with papery bracts that hold colour for weeks. Supplied as an assorted selection, the bract colour varies across magenta, purple, pink, white and orange tones depending on availability.
Why Bougainvillea Standard
Colour Duration: The colour comes from bracts rather than petals, so the display lasts far longer than true flowers.
Heat Loving: Flowers hardest in the hottest, driest, most exposed position in the garden.
Low Water: Blooms best when kept on the dry side; overwatering produces leaf instead of colour.
Contained Form: Training onto a standard removes the sprawl and keeps a naturally rampant plant to a set footprint.
Fast Recovery: Regrows quickly after clipping, so the head can be reshaped several times a season.
Ideal Applications
Terrace and Courtyard Pots: Root restriction in a container actually improves flowering.
Poolside Colour: Handles reflected heat and glare that bleach most flowering plants.
Formal Entry Accent: A matched pair of standards frames a gate or doorway with seasonal colour.
Coastal and Mediterranean Gardens: Suits frost free coastal and warm inland districts with dry summers.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): Not a screening form. In a repeated row allow 1.5 to 2m.
Spacing (feature/avenue): 2 to 3m as separated standards
Best Planting Season: Spring and early summer once the soil is warm
Soil & Drainage: Free draining and on the lean side. Rich, wet or heavily fertilised soil produces vigorous green growth and very little colour.
Establishment Care: Water regularly for the first few months to settle the roots, then allow the soil to dry between waterings, since a slight dry stress triggers flowering. Clip the head after each flush, use a low nitrogen fertiliser, handle carefully because the stems are thorny, and keep it out of frost.
