Bonzai Bouganvillia;Green Leaves But No Flower

I have a bonzai bouganvillia in a microclimate and a 2.5 gallon warm humidifiere next to it. There leaves grow quick but no flowers/blooms. The moss on the base of the plant is dead as can be and the soil is dry but the leaves are green and strong. How do I get the plant to produce pink flowers? Also, can I use a standard plant food on this plant?
Thanks in advance,
Matthew S. Lenco

Re: Bonsai Bougainvillea

Keep it healthy and it will flower when it is ready. Bougainvillea will flower pretty readily in summer, sometimes after repotting it may take a while.

They a lot of sunshine, and the humidifier part makes me wonder if you have this plant indoors?

Regards,

Matt
