Poinsettias make stunning decorations at Christmas-time.
Church altars often have an abundance of red and white ones, around the holidays.
This month, the priest at our church surprised the parishioners when he announced they could help themselves to the poinsettias that had made the church so beautiful at Christmas.
We were very surprised and thankful for that offer.
A majestic white one appealed to me and hubs brought home one of each color.
We hope the lovely plants will live to bloom once again, if given care and love.
HAVE YOU EVER HAD POINSETTIAS THAT BLOOMED A SECOND TIME?

I've never gotten mine to survive very long in a pot, but they make a great garden plant in warm climates. A friend in Louisiana had them as bushes along the path leading to her front door.
I have my last Christmas one from 2017 on my living room table still. It bloomed again for Christmas decorating in 2018. It was outside the entire year. So beautiful and much taller. Love it. It's a red one.
To be honest - I have no idea - but they are gorgeous. Nice of your church to do that. sandie
What a lovely gift, and I know you will nurture them into rebloom.
That white poinsettia is so pretty. I haven't seen them around at the stores here. That was really nice of the Priest to let the people take one home. It looks lovely on your entry table.
