Growth Rate & Mature Size

Growth Rate: The Red Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) has a moderate growth rate, typically growing 6–12 inches per year when provided with the right care.

Mature Size: Indoors, it can reach a height of 2–3 feet with a spread of 1–2 feet, making it the perfect size for placing on tables, mantels, or as a striking centerpiece during the holiday season.

Watering & Sunlight

Watering: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. Ensure proper drainage, as the Poinsettia prefers its soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Sunlight: Thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate some direct sunlight, too much can scorch its vibrant leaves. Keep it in a spot with plenty of bright, filtered light for optimal growth and color.
