Poinsettia Plant’s Care Instructions:

Sunlight: Place the poinsettia near a sunny window. South-, east- or west-facing windows are preferable to a north-facing window. Poinsettias are tropicals and will appreciate as much direct sunlight as you can provide.

Soil: A loose, well-draining peat-based potting soil is best for your poinsettia.

Water: After pruning, the poinsettia will require less water. Give it only enough to prevent the soil from drying out completely. Once growth resumes, water as necessary, allowing the soil surface to dry out between waterings. Outside, especially in full sun, be sure not to let it wilt!

Fertilizer: Do not fertilize poinsettias during the blooming period. When keeping the plant through the year, begin fertilizing in the spring at half strength when there’s no growth—not until then. Feed every three to four weeks.
