Poinsettia, Christmas Red 
圣诞红, Euphorbia pulcherrima

Pot Size

Ø15cm x H11cm

Overall Height

30-50cm (approx.) from the base of the pot

Sunlight requirements

Bright, indirect light is still crucial. However, in Singapore's intense tropical sun, provide some shade during the hottest part of the day to prevent leaf burn.

Watering needs

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Given Singapore's humidity, monitor soil moisture and adjust watering frequency. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water.

Pruning Requirements

Pinch back the growing tips in late spring to encourage bushier growth. Trim back after blooming to maintain a compact shape.

Special Features

Poinsettias are known for their colorful bracts, which are often red. They bloom in response to shorter daylight periods. In Singapore's consistent day lengths, they may need extra care to initiate blooming.

Blooming Period

Poinsettias typically bloom in winter. In Singapore, where daylight hours are relatively constant, inducing blooming might require placing the plant in darkness for about 14 hours per day for several weeks.

By adjusting care to the specific conditions in Singapore, you can help your Poinsettia thrive in the tropical environment. Keep a close eye on the plant's response and adapt your care routine accordingly.
