Poinsettia
Poinsettias are a timeless holiday favorite, bringing vibrant color and festive cheer to your home. Known for their striking red, pink, or white bracts, these plants make a perfect seasonal centerpiece or gift.
Care Instructions
-
Light: Place your Poinsettia in a bright location with plenty of indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, and low-light areas, which may reduce its vibrancy.
-
Temperature: Poinsettias thrive in temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18°C-24°C). Protect them from drafts, sudden temperature changes, and exposure to cold, as these can cause leaf drop.
-
Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Discard any excess water from the saucer after watering.
-
Humidity: Poinsettias prefer moderate humidity. If your home is dry during winter, consider placing a tray of water with pebbles near the plant to increase humidity.
-
Fertilization: During the holiday season, fertilization is not necessary. If keeping your Poinsettia beyond the holidays, feed it monthly with a balanced houseplant fertilizer starting in spring.
-
Pruning: After the bracts fade, prune the plant back to about 6 inches to encourage new growth. Continue pruning lightly through the growing season to maintain a compact shape.
-
Post-Holiday Care: Poinsettias can rebloom with proper care. In early fall, place the plant in complete darkness for 12-14 hours each night and bright, indirect light during the day. This process, called photoperiodism, helps initiate blooming for the next holiday season.
-
Decorating Tip: Pair your Poinsettias with festive ornaments, garlands, or candles for an eye-catching holiday display.
With proper care, your Poinsettia will add joy and warmth to your home, making it a cherished part of your holiday traditions.
