The Festive Star of the Plant World
The Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) is a holiday icon known for its vibrant red bracts (often mistaken for flowers), though it also comes in shades of white, pink, and marbled varieties. Native to Mexico, this plant brings a splash of seasonal cheer indoors with its dramatic foliage and festive appeal. Poinsettias are relatively easy to care for but do best with a little attention.
While Poinsettias are often rumored to be highly toxic, they’re only mildly irritating if ingested by pets. Keep them out of reach to avoid any upset tummies or skin irritation from their sap.
A well-cared-for Poinsettia is not just a decoration but a living piece of holiday tradition—a reminder of warmth, joy, and celebration.
After the holidays, prune the plant back and let it rest before encouraging regrowth for the next year.
