Care Tips
Poinsettias are native to the tropics and will not survive temperatures lower that 40o. In nature, as in our greenhouses, the plants thrive in a sunny, warm, humid environment. The winter temperatures and dryness in our homes are not ideal growing conditions, and may cause leaves to drop. Keep your poinsettia away from drafts and heat sources in an area where it receives good light. When the soil in the pot begins to dry out, remove the plastic pot cover and water thoroughly allowing water to run out the bottom of the pot. Allow the plant to drain before replacing the pot cover. Never allow plant to stand in water. When danger of frost is past, you can plant your poinsettia in the garden. Cut back top of plant to encourage new growth. The new leaves will be green. The bracts (leaves) turn red in the fall, when the daylight hours are shorter than the nighttime hours. When temperatures are below 40o bring plant inside.
