Product Description
The Tiger Marble Orange bougainvillea is a unique and eye-catching variety known for its striking orange bracts and variegated foliage. This variety adds a vibrant and exotic touch to gardens and landscapes. Here’s an overview of the Tiger Marble Orange bougainvillea:
Characteristics
- Appearance: The Tiger Marble Orange bougainvillea produces large clusters of bright orange bracts, which are often mistaken for flowers but are actually modified leaves. These bracts surround small, white, tubular flowers.
- Foliage: One of the distinguishing features of this variety is its variegated foliage. The leaves are a mix of green and creamy white, providing a stunning backdrop to the bright orange bracts.
- Growth Habit: This variety is a vigorous grower and can be trained to grow as a shrub, tree, or vine. Its versatile growth habit makes it suitable for various garden designs.
- Thorns: Like other bougainvilleas, the Tiger Marble Orange has thorny stems, so care should be taken when handling and pruning.
Cultivation
- Climate: Bougainvilleas thrive in warm, sunny climates and are well-suited for USDA hardiness zones 9-11. They are not frost-tolerant and need protection in colder climates.
- Soil: Well-draining soil is essential to prevent root rot. They prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil pH.
- Watering: These plants are drought-tolerant once established. They require regular watering during the growing season but should be allowed to dry out between waterings.
- Fertilization: Regular feeding with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season promotes vibrant bract production.
- Pruning: Regular pruning helps maintain the desired shape and encourages more blooms. Pruning should be done after the flowering period.
Uses
- Ornamental: The Tiger Marble Orange bougainvillea is often used as an ornamental plant in gardens and landscapes. It can be trained to grow on trellises, fences, or pergolas, adding a splash of color to any area.
- Containers: This variety can also be grown in containers, making it suitable for patios and balconies.
- Hedges and Borders: With its dense growth and thorny nature, it can be used as a natural barrier or hedge.
Care Tips
- Sunlight: Ensure the plant gets full sun for at least 6 hours a day to encourage prolific blooming.
- Protection: In cooler climates, consider growing bougainvillea in pots that can be moved indoors during winter.
- Pest Control: Watch for common pests like aphids, caterpillars, and spider mites. Regular inspection and appropriate treatments can keep these issues in check.
The Tiger Marble Orange bougainvillea is a stunning addition to any garden, offering vibrant color and unique variegated foliage. With proper care, it can be a long-lasting and eye-catching feature in your landscape.
