    I bought a bougainvillea tree at Lowe's and it was beautiful when I brought it home and for about a week. It started losing all of it's blooms and then I noticed it looked like something was chewing on the leaves. I found a few catepillar looking bugs so I sprayed it with a mixture of vegetable oil and dish soap per instructions from the internet. Over the next few days every single leaf fell off. Any ideas on what to do next?
