Description
An individual leaf off a waterlogged poinsettia had fallen to the ground and it seemed to have potential. My father had left it in a large flower pot in my garden. All it needed was some air-always take off the decorative foil and let the plant breathe/drain.
The poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) is a culturally and commercially important plant species of the diverse spurge family that is indigenous to Mexico and Central America. It is particularly well known for its red and green foliage and is widely used in Christmas floral displays. It derives its common English name from Joel Roberts Poinsett, the first United States Minister to Mexico, who introduced the plant into the United States in 1825
