Grow Your Holiday Poinsettias Year Round |
|
|
I just was given a white poinsettia left over from the church Xmas decorations. Don't throw away those poinsettias after the holidays! Over the years, I have rescued several of them from offices and elsewhere. They are viable plants that will eventually provide nice greenery as a potted plant. Or if you live in a mild enough climate, you can replant them outdoors. They are native to Mexico I understand, and were a holy plant to the Aztecs. So they do well in Southern California, with a similar climate.

As a small child I can STILL remember these HUGE poinsettia bushes growing in someone's garden in the mountains of Mayaguez, Puerto Rico... Boy! Oh Boy!... Give them the right climate & they will soar!

I once had an elderly neighbor who had a pink and a red poinsettia in a large pot by her front door. We lived in the apartment above her and some of the leaves were peeking between the boards on my balcony. I have never seen them that big but needless to say all the neighbors enjoyed them!
