Poinsettia---This is one of my favourite. The bright red coloured bracts look very attractive and in winter it adds colour to my window.The bracts remain on the plant for weeks and looks very attractive.The flowers are inconspicuous and the bracts make up for the flowers. It is widely used in Christmas decorations and is also called the flame leaf flower.Poinsettias respond to photoperiodism.They require 12 hrs of darkness continuously for five days for the bracts to change colour.
The poinsettias are my favourite!! Love the blazing red colour on them! You have a lovely house garden mommy :*
