Time to Think of Poinsettias, REALLY?

Our friend Melinda Myers thinks so, she suggest you...


Start covering your poinsettia now to have a colorful plant for Christmas. Give your plant 14 hours of total darkness each night and bright sunlight during the day. Make sure to block out any artificial light from inside or outside your home. Keep the soil a little drier and the plant a bit cooler at night for the greatest chance of success. Repeat until the bracts (leaves beneath the yellow flowers) are fully colored.
