It's possible that you just don't have the right zone for successfully growing bougainvilleas outside. They grow like wildfire here in my zone 9A California garden. We have low humidity, moderate hot summer, and rain only in the winter, though I do water them in summer mine that are established don't require a lot of water and we have little freezing in the winter.
Hello Korvette, It might not be a problem with the plant. You might have a problem with the soil. I recommend dissolving a teaspoon of Epson Salt in a gallon of water and sprinkling it on the base of the plant where it meets the soil. This will put enzymes in the soil and give your plant it's best chance. You can repeat this every couple weeks. Best of luck to you.
