I live in the South East, close to the sea, perhaps this helps, but my local village hall grows one in their gardens, & it faces east.

I’m sure in the summer you can bring it out of the greenhouse, but with the Bougainvillea (just looked up spelling) it should be in a warm Conservatory. Good Luck if you buy an Oleander.

Plant Evergreen Shrubs and Trees
Do you want to plant evergreen shrubs and trees? Now is the ideal time to do so.
I grow a pink flowered one in a large pot outdoors, the perfume is very delicate, with a sort of powdery aroma. New flowers form over the winter but do not blossom till the following summer, so if it’s a cold winter, it comes & lives in the porch, or I wrap it with white fleece. Oh and it likes No 3 Potting Compost Enjoy.
