First, ensure it receives full sun – Bougainvillea thrives in at least six hours daily. Check soil moisture; they prefer well-draining soil, so avoid overwatering which can lead to root rot. Allow the top few inches to dry out between waterings. Also, minimize disturbance to its root ball, as they can be sensitive to transplant shock.
