Bright and Cheerful.

Poinsettias are back in the shops as Christmas approaches. I don't think I will be buying this colour though.
They are pretty - but I have no success with poinsettias -- I think the house is too warm for them ! so I just admire them in the garden centres !!

@beryl I bought a poinsettia from M&S which just started to die the day after I got it home. So I took it back and got a refund. (I've had a poinsettia last nearly a year once!) Then I saw some in Sainsbury's so I bought one of those. It's doing well except one stalk obviously got broken in transit so have taken that off.

Wendy, I used to like these different colours but I agree with you now and have stuck to traditional red.

‘‘Tis the season for poinsettias. I thinks it is pretty but with the colors of my home, I have several pink and white artificial ones that look very real. I cluster them together.

@quietpurplehaze ohhhhh- so sorry to hear that! He was such a photogenic pup and obviously full of personality too.

I don't mind these colors as an accent, but if I'm buying one for my home, it's always the red. The all-whites are nice, but red really is the color of Christmas for me. Nicely captured!
