Poinsettia - Joel Poinsett, the first US Ambassador to Mexico, found the poinsettia growing in Mexico. Its scientific name, Euphorbia pulcherrima, means beautiful euphorbia. William Prescott, a horticulturist, renamed the plant poinsettia in honor of Joel Poinsett. Starting in 1900, the Ecke family of California became the leading producers of poinsettias in the United States.
SIMPLE FACTS:
1. Poinsettias are not poisonous, although the white sap it produces may cause skin irritations.
2. When grown in nature, poinsettias are perennials.
3. The showy colorful parts of the plant that many call the flowers are really the leaves (bracts). The flowers are the tiny yellow things at the center of the bracts.
4. Poinsettias are the best selling potted plant in the US. 85% of all flowers sold at Christmas are poinsettias.

Most Recent "Ask Judy" Question:
Hi Judy: It is Jan and as always I have very early spring
fever in my Zone 3 location. I have purchased very inexpensively
an Azalea for our local box store. It looks very healthy with
dark colored leaves and a round bush like shape. Question - The
plant appears to have flowered already, leaving numberous spike
like cluster all over the plant. Should these be cut off? Next
Question There appears to be new green foilage shoots around where
the previous flower where. Should I cut this new growth off or
will they eventually blossom?? I would like to just keep it in
the house until spring and then take it outside to the shaded
patio. Thank you for any suggestions you might have. - Wendy
