if poinsettia drops leaves in December due to lack of light, how can you get it to bloom again?

1 Answer

Answer :

Hello, I just want to say stop loving your pointsettia. :)  One mistake must make is over watering it.  The pointsettia is not a plant or flowering plant.  It is a tree with leaves, and does not need much water or light during the month of December.  Wait for the soil to get about 2 inches of dry dirt.  (about to the knuckle of your pointer finger.) Keep it away from vents, breezes, extreme changes in temperature or humidity.  I used the link below to help in my care of the Pointsettia.   Genexxa Pointsettia Expert
