Is anyone’s Poinsettia not dying for once?

I don’t go early for Christmas - I put up my tree 17th at the absolute earliest. But I like a poinsettia really early on in December, maybe even late November and think they are a great lasting thing in place of a bunch of flowers.

I put the one I’d bought
(which was in rude health at the time) on the landing upstairs on the 6th of January expecting a managed decline from a 5 quid Sainsbury’s Christmas thing.

It’s thriving. 🤷‍♀️

I've only had one that was ever anything longer than a 9 day wonder. I've given up now as they just make me too sad and frustrated!

Advice I've been given or read is always contradictory. 😩

Mine too!
It does not look quite as good as it did around Christmas, but it still looks nice!

That's so funny. I was looking at mine today and thinking where shall I put it. It doesn't look right next to a jug of daffodils .

Mine is a year and 3 months old now, it's all weird and gnarly with lots of green leaves, I love it!
