Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?
Hi Hazel,
The Vietnamese do great things with Bougainvillae and other plants in what I call “potscaping”, similar to bonsai. There are quite a few photos here, if you are interested: Potscaping Vietnam - a set on Flickr Unfortunately there are not a lot of English speakers in Vietnam and those who are, work in tourism, hotels etc., not as gardeners. Therefore I have seen the results of their art, but could not ask how they do it. I have real problems with my Bougainvillae, mostly stemming from the fact, that I have to keep it inside from October through March and even in April I have to take it inside every time frost threatens. By the time it is well under way with recovery, it is almost fall again When I trim it back this coming autumn I will try to root a few of the cuttings, so I have something to experiment with. Maybe I can keep it small enough to grow it indoors permanently. Best, Olaf
