I assume the commercial growers of bougainvillea spray insecticide on their plants in the field. Mine certainly suffer constantly from pests. I am going to dedicate one watering every 2 weeks to pest control by putting in a tablespoon of Bayer Protect in 3L of water. This will include the potato tree which seems to be quite susceptible to getting eaten up.
Having said this, the bougainvilleas are beginning to flower. The magenta is in the midst a big flush. The purple hanging over the handrail are putting out shyly as is the orange. The plumeria are in full bloom and the newly planted pandora vine has a beautiful flower on it with buds on the way.
