Poinsettia Red

Botanical Name: Euphorbia pulcherrima

Common Name(s): Poinsettia Red

Poinsettia Red is the classic and most popular variety of the Poinsettia plant, widely known for its vibrant red bracts that resemble large, showy petals surrounding tiny, yellow flowers. This festive plant is a favorite during the holiday season, often used as decoration in homes and offices. Typically, Poinsettia Red grows to about 12-18 inches tall, making it a perfect choice for tabletops, windowsills, and holiday displays.

Poinsettia Red thrives in bright, indirect light, which helps it maintain its vivid color. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of the soil feels dry. Overwatering can cause root rot, so it’s important to ensure the soil drains well. Poinsettias should be kept in a warm environment (65-75°F or 18-24°C) and should be protected from drafts or sudden temperature changes.

Air Purifying Qualities:

  • Toxin Removal: Like other Poinsettias, this plant can contribute to the removal of common indoor toxins, such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene, making it a subtle air purifier for your space.
  • Oxygen Production: Poinsettia Red absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, helping to freshen the air in your home.

Note: Poinsettias are mildly toxic to pets (cats and dogs) if ingested, causing mild stomach irritation. Keep the plant out of reach of curious pets to avoid any discomfort.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Avoid drafts: Protect your Poinsettia from cold drafts, as they can cause leaf drop.
  2. Fertilize sparingly: Feed your Poinsettia with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength once a month in the summer and spring.
  3. Monitor for pests: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
  4. Pruning: After the holiday season, prune your Poinsettia to encourage new growth.
  5. Seasonal care: The Poinsettia Red is a short-day plant, meaning it requires specific light conditions to bloom. To encourage reblooming, provide 12-14 hours of darkness each night for 5-6 weeks during the fall.

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

How can I change my order details?

To update your order details, please contact us within 24 hours of placing your order. We care about all our customers and will like to ship the correct item to the right location. We are not held responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses. In addition, we cannot cancel orders that has already been shipped.

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

Where do you ship?

We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
