Bougainvillea 'Pink Pixie'
Bougainvillea 'Pink Pixie' is a charming, compact variety of bougainvillea, popular for its delicate pink bracts and reduced size, which makes it ideal for small spaces or as a container plant. This dwarf variety offers a burst of color with minimal bulk, making it a popular choice for balconies, patios and urban gardens.
Origin: Native to South America like all bougainvillea, 'Pink Pixie' was developed to meet the need for smaller, manageable varieties suitable for growing in pots and confined spaces.
Growth: Bougainvillea 'Pink Pixie' is a climbing plant that exhibits a more controlled and compact growing behavior compared to its taller cousins. It typically reaches a maximum height and width of around 1 to 2 meters, making it perfect for container growing or applications where space is limited.
Flowers: The bracts of 'Pink Pixie' are a vibrant pink, creating an impressive visual display. The true flowers, as in other bougainvillea, are small and white in color, often overshadowed by the splendor of the bracts.
Light: This variety benefits from exposure to full, direct sun to produce its most spectacular and abundant blooms. It can tolerate some shade, but the color of the bracts may be less vibrant.
Watering: 'Pink Pixie' is relatively drought tolerant once established, but for optimal flowering it prefers regular watering. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings to avoid overmoistening and the risk of root rot.
Substrate: Use well-drained soil to avoid root rot problems. A houseplant soil mix enriched with perlite is ideal for ensuring good drainage.
Toxicity: Like most bougainvillea, 'Pink Pixie' is not toxic to humans or pets. However, its spines can pose a risk of injury, so care should be taken when handling or pruning.
Bougainvillea 'Pink Pixie' is a great choice for those looking to add a burst of color to their garden or living space without the management challenges associated with larger bougainvillea varieties. Its compact size and abundant blooms make it an attractive option for indoor and outdoor decorations, especially in urban areas or small gardens.
