Xmas Poinsettia
I've always been reluctant to buy a Xmas Poinsettia knowing the poor things have a limited shelf life!
My mum has one from a couple of years ago and it has three 'branches' with about 4 leaves on each but she, like me, cant bear to throw plants away but its a very very sad looking plant!
Well this is mine from last year ..... Does anyone else have an adult poinsettia?
The leaves are very beautiful if not delicate, it drinks a lot and is currently going through the cold weather in the conservatory although i have some fleece to wrap it in if needs be! Oh and i have just given it a mist in these pics .....
Any other pics or stories would be much appreciated :T

Ignore the catnip plant to the left, the cats practically lie on it dribbling so it always looks a mess
