Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.
The Bougainvillea White is a variety of the popular Bougainvillea genus, known for its striking white bracts that resemble paper flowers. Despite its delicate appearance, this plant is remarkably hardy and drought-tolerant, making it perfect for India's diverse climate. The actual flowers are small and white, but they're surrounded by larger, papery bracts that create the stunning visual display this plant is famous for. In its 5-inch nursery pot, this bougainvillea is well-established and ready to thrive in your garden or terrace.
Light & Placement
Bougainvillea thrives in bright, direct sunlight and requires at least 4-5 hours of full sun daily to produce abundant flowers. Place your plant in the sunniest spot possible, preferably receiving morning sun. This outdoor plant loves heat and will bloom most profusely when exposed to maximum sunlight. It's perfect for south-facing gardens, terraces, or any location where it can bask in the sun without obstruction.
Watering & Humidity
Despite its lush appearance, Bougainvillea is quite drought-tolerant once established. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering is more harmful than underwatering, as it can lead to root rot. This plant prefers well-draining soil and doesn't require high humidity, making it ideal for most Indian climates. During the peak of summer, you may need to water more frequently, but always check the soil moisture first.

Care steps
Choose sunny location. Place your Bougainvillea where it receives at least 4-5 hours of direct sunlight daily for best flowering.
Water sparingly. Water only when the top inch of soil feels dry; overwatering can harm this drought-tolerant plant.
Use well-draining soil. Plant in soil that drains freely to prevent waterlogging, which can cause root rot.
Prune after flowering. Trim back stems after the blooming period to encourage bushier growth and more flowers next season.
Fertilize lightly. Apply a balanced fertilizer during the growing season to support healthy foliage and abundant blooms.
