How to care for a poinsettia

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Wednesday, December 20, 2017

The Hardin County extension office advises:

Poinsettias are extremely beautiful flowers. Proper care of poinsettias after purchase include watering pots thoroughly (to saturation) on a regular basis allowing the potting media surface to dry out between waterings.  

Never let the pot stand in water.  Keep temperatures between 60 and 70 degrees. Place plants near a sunny window, but out of direct sunlight and away from hot and cold drafts.
