Hello my dear friends,




... a new tiny flower is growing!

I am so over the moon about this!




Have a peaceful and creative day.


  1. Wow I am impressed with your green thumb and patience! Have a creative day! I am going to start a shamrock yoyo project today.

  2. Hi there.... what you are actually seeing is not the flower but the leaves turning red... the actually flower will be the little centers...To get it to turn red for Christmas you would have had to force it by giving it so many hours of darkness compared to light....by putting it in a dark closet etc... thats how they manipulate the ones at the store for Christmas....otherwise its natural 'bloom' time is the Spring same with the amaryllis... Hugs! deb

  3. It may need the old leaves removed as well.Has it had any plant food? Watered down soluble fertiliser is good.
    They grow outside where we are. I love them!

  4. You are a patient soul, ya know that? I've had beautiful poinsettia plants in the past and the same things have happened to mine. I just threw it away ... and now I'm sad.

    Enjoy this beautiful bloom!

  5. I think the plant must love you and your house, as mine never survive until spring. Good for you!

  6. I don't know of anyone who has ever brought one back to flower again. My mother, who had a very green thumb, tried every single year and had no success. You must have a magic touch!

  7. Soooooooooooooo wonderful Karen!

    Hugs Ines♥
