Bouganvillea
If you are looking for a great plant for sun and heat, look no further. Bouganvillea plants thrive in the tropics in areas of low rainfall and intense sun and heat. Plant or place Bouganvillea in full sun, keeping the plants on the dry side especially if you want lots of blooms.
Bouganvillea bloom best when pot bound, and make great container plants for a south or west facing deck or patio. Fertilize with a water soluble plant food at half strength every ten days during the growing season.
When bringing indoors for the fall and winter, give the plant a hard prune and place in a brightly lit room, watering sparingly until early spring.
