As the calendar inches closer to the holiday season, the captivating allure of Poinsettias takes center stage.
Their rich, velvety red petals and delicate blooms are like nature's ornaments, adorning homes with an unmistakable festive charm. While their visual impact is undeniable, many remain mystified about the secrets to maintaining these botanical gems.
Not to worry though! Below you will find essential tips to care for Poinsettias, ensuring they thrive indoors all season long!
Lighting Matters
Place your Poinsettia in a well-lit spot, preferably one with bright, indirect light. While they love brightness, direct sunlight can be harsh. Strike a balance to keep their color vibrant and their leaves healthy.
Temperature TLC
Poinsettias are temperature-sensitive. Maintain a consistent room temperature between 18-24°C. Avoid exposing them to drafts or placing them near heaters, as sudden temperature changes can stress the plant.
Hydration Harmony
Water your Poinsettia when the topsoil feels dry to the touch. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, a common woe leading to root rot. Strike a balance; too much or too little water can be detrimental.
