These will come in the week of Thanksgiving. Years ago poinsettias only came in red, but breeders have now developed over 100 varieties in different colors, shapes, and sizes. They’re also a lot easier to grow. Contrary to the common myth, poinsettias are not poisonous and never have been. So don’t worry about enjoying these gorgeous plants in your home.  The colorful part of the plant is a special leaf known as a bract. The actual flowers are inconspicuous little yellow pods at the center of each cluster of bracts.  Poinsettias are tropical plants native to Central America, where they can grow as tall as trees.

Points to Help Your Poinsettia stay healthy:

  • Select a plant with dense, vigorous dark green leaves and stiff stems
  • Protect from cold below 50°F when taking plants home
  • Position in a sunny location away from cold windows or drafts
  • Avoid heater vents because air above 70°F can fade bracts
  • Water only when the soil surface begins to dry
  • Avoid soggy soil that leads to root rot; never let plant sit in water
  • Remove outer foil or poke drainage holes to avoid wet feet
  • Fertilize every 2–3 weeks so the bracts stay colorful through spring
