Raising bougainvillea on the balcony, choosing "Tonganhong" is beautiful and elegant, and it is worth starting with.

Tonganhong is a network celebrity bougainvillea, which was cultivated in Tongan District of Xiamen in 1990s, so it was named after this place.

It has the habit of bougainvillea, and at the same time it is more beautiful than ordinary bougainvillea and has a huge amount of flowers. Once the green leaves are in full bloom, they can be completely covered by flowers, only flowers can be seen, but no leaves can be seen.

Tonganhong has strong adaptability. It not only grows well in the south, but also adapts to the local climate in the north.

In the south, it is generally planted in the form of ground planting, and in the north, it is basically potted.

Therefore, it has certain advantages in cold resistance, which is stronger than ordinary bougainvillea.

After Tonganhong appeared, Xiamen became more beautiful because of it, and it was found in all the streets and lanes, and every time it bloomed, it could give full play to Xiamen's retro feeling.

Walking beside the ancient buildings in the 1920s and 1930s, the red Tonga red sprouted from the fence, and clusters of delicate flowers hung on the fence, which surprised many passers-by.

Tonganhong's flowers are rich in color. It was orange when it first opened, and its color was not as bright as other bougainvillea. But don't worry, as the flower unfolds, its color will also change and gradually become deep red. When you think this is its most beautiful state, it is wrong, and its color will turn purple and gorgeous.

Tongan has a long safflower period, which lasts from spring to winter. In this long flowering period, there is also a flowering period. For example, spring and autumn are its flowering periods. At this time, it is the most beautiful season of the year.

Its flower quantity can reach the peak, and the dense flowers gather together to completely bury the green leaves, but only the flowers can't see the leaves.

Tonganhong is very tough. As a tropical plant, it has very strong heat resistance and grows more and more vigorously under high temperature and summer heat.

In winter, it has the greatest cold tolerance and can grow in an environment of MINUS five degrees.

Hubei and Sichuan can spend the winter outdoors, and the Northeast needs to move indoors.

It needs little care when planted on the red soil in Tonga. It grows freely like weeds and wild trees, but as a potted plant, we need to spend some time and energy to take care of it.

For example, in the choice of soil, we should be careful, planting with humus soil, adding a small amount of nutrient soil and adding appropriate sand and gravel. Loose, breathable and fertile soil is more suitable for it.

Planting in flowerpots has low requirements for flowerpots. Plastic pots and ceramic pots can be planted. It likes big flowerpots, so the diameter of flowerpots should not be less than15cm.

The bigger the flowerpot, the faster the plants grow and the better the ornamental value.

It is a tropical plant, although it has a certain shade tolerance, but if it wants to be preserved well, it still needs to grow in a sunny place.

The sunshine is good, the colors will be brighter and the amount of flowers will be more.

The rest is watering and fertilizing. As a tropical plant, it has certain drought tolerance. It's not too late for us to wait until the soil is dry. On the contrary, frequent watering will lead to water accumulation, and in more serious cases, it will cause root rot.

Put it in a well-ventilated environment, even if it is watered too much occasionally, it can quickly discharge water and reduce water accumulation.

Tongan red bougainvillea doesn't have a high demand for fertilizer, so if it has no planting experience, it can not be fertilized first.

Even if you want to fertilize, you must remember to dilute it before using it. It is enough to fertilize it two or three times a month. Too much will burn the roots, but it will backfire.

Tonganhong is a plant with strong climbing ability and strong plasticity. We can trim it into a tree, or make a flower wall by pruning and pulling.

This is a bougainvillea with almost no shortcomings. It can grow no matter whether it is planted in the south or the north. It not only has a large amount of flowers, but also has a long flowering period. It has super climbing ability. How can people not like this bougainvillea?
