A native to Mexico, the Poinsettia (or Mexican flameleaf) remain one of the most popular holiday plants, their bright red colour making them perfect for Christmas tables and decor.

Actually a shrub, the blooms are a cluster of tiny yellow flowers surrounded by large brilliant floral bracts, which are modified leaves. For best results in keeping your Poinsettia through the Christmas season and beyond, keep in bright direct light. Mist regularly to increase humidity and water once the top soil is dry, but don’t allow to dry out completely. Once the Christmas season is over and the blooms have dropped, cut back to the green leaves to encourage future regrowth.

Comes in a 14cm nursery pot.
