Should I repot my bougainvillea?



Does my bougainvillea require repotting or watering? From what I've read, bougainvilleas bloom well when they are dry and rootbound, and placed in a full sun position. They don't like repotting because they have a delicate root system. Watering too much can also make them sick. I'm planning on watering my bougainvillea every 8 days. But the weather has been awfully hot here, and the leaves look soft and dropey. On Wednesday when I look at this plant, there were some ants crawling around the pot. So I watered my plant deeply that day in the hope that it will flush those ants out.
