The Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) is a classic holiday plant, famous for its vibrant, colorful bracts that are often mistaken for flowers. Native to Mexico, this plant is a popular decorative feature during Christmas due to its festive colors, which include red, pink, white, and variegated varieties.
Key Features:
Bracts: The large, colored leaves (bracts) surround small, yellow, inconspicuous flowers called cyathia.
Foliage: Dark green leaves contrast beautifully with the colorful bracts.
Size: Can grow up to 10--15 feet in tropical climates but typically stays 1--3 feet tall indoors.
Care Requirements:
Light: Needs bright, indirect light to thrive. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves. During blooming, keep it near a sunny window but avoid harsh midday sun.
Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water to prevent root rot. Reduce watering after the blooming period.
Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 65--75°F (18--24°C). Keep away from drafts, heaters, or sudden temperature changes.
Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity. If the air is dry, misting occasionally can help.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix.
Fertilizer: During the growing season (spring and summer), feed every 4--6 weeks with a balanced fertilizer. Avoid fertilizing while the plant is in bloom.
Encouraging Re-bloom:
To get your poinsettia to bloom again the following year:
Post-Holiday Care: After the holidays, cut the plant back to about 4--6 inches tall and continue regular watering and fertilizing.
Light Control: Starting in fall (late September to early October), provide 14--16 hours of complete darkness daily (e.g., covering it with a box or placing it in a dark closet) and bright light during the day for about 8 weeks. This process triggers blooming.
Temperature: Maintain temperatures around 60--70°F (15--21°C).
Common Problems:
Dropping Leaves: Often caused by overwatering, sudden temperature changes, or drafts.
Yellow Leaves: Usually a sign of inconsistent watering or low humidity.
Pests: Watch for whiteflies, aphids, and spider mites.
