Poinsettia
I know they are not very hardy but I will ask anyway. I have some Poinsettia that have survived Christmas and even are starting to grow new shoots. Does anyone know anything about some of its requirements, especially sun and water requirements?
Who wouldn't want free pie and chips?

Treat them like you would your palms. Full sun fast draining soil, and regular water. It worked good for me in the past.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
