Small, but spectacular! When did it start(turn red)?
All mine are just green leaves at present, but i think they start to colour up as Autumn ends and are in bloom for Winter(June July)… but then they also flower for Christmas?
I’ve done a bit of research and found a photo I took on November 9 where the poinsettias have started to turn red but the leaves are still a bit small and some still have a tinge of green, so I’d say they start to turn red in November and by early December, at the latest, are fully developed and red. On March 5, they still look full, fresh and RED. I live in Mexico about an hour away from Guadalajara.
They most certainly are still going strong 😀

Mine turned red in time for Xmas and are still vibrant in March.

3-4 months sounds just about right to me too. Am pretty sure i’ll get 2 such blooms a year.
Thanks for that! 🙂
