Is Inducing Flowering For Bougainvillea Bonsai Necessary At All?
from:The majority of the bonsai trees do not flower or fruit with very few exceptions. Part of that exceptional group is the bougainvillea which belongs to the Nyctaginaceace family that is special in the fact that this is partly a very strong tree and partly an evergreen vine. This is maybe the only one tree that was discovered and adapted to bonsai in America exclusively.
Inducing Flowering For Bougainvillea Bonsai To Get It At Its Best Possible Stance
It is true that this is one of the fastest growing bonsai trees in the world and maybe the most versatile in shaping and form. However, the best that it has to offer is visible when it is in full bloom.

The colors of the flowers can be widely varied – white, pink, scarlet, red, orange, lavender, yellow and carmine. In the bonsai tree it mostly covers the whole canopy giving you a sight that would leave you breathless. If the plant is happy, which means that is well fed and kept in controlled climate inducing flowering for bougainvillea bonsai would be easy. All you need to do is simulate the spring time by constantly reinforcing the critical signals of that time, such as the dryness in the air, the starting of cold and even a certain amount of wind.

Once you get your bonsai, all you need to propagate it is taking tiny little drafts from the mother plant to be potted at the later date. Whatever qualities the mother plant would have, the baby plant would have the same.
Though a bonsai bougainvillea in flower is stunning and definitely would fetch a greater price, it is advisable to avoid inducing flowering for bougainvillea bonsai because (1) in the majority of cases it is not necessary as the plant would definitely flower when time comes for it do so, i.e. in the winter time and (2) it might stress the plant due to undue interfering with its life cycle.
