Plant Description:

The Tukai Bright red variety has deep green oak shaped leaves. The flowers are of a glowing red color.
The Poinsettia is one of the worlds most popular pot plants. From its humble origins in Mexico it has come a long way to brighten up our surrounding?s. The Poinsettia plants provides spectacular color during the winter season. The colored leaves of the Poinsettia develop when the plants are going to flower. These are called the Bracts. True flowers are small yellow-green and are in the center of the Bracts. The Poinsettias are synonymous with the Christmas and New year celebrations. Their arrival heralds the onset of festivities. Poinsettias are also an excellent outdoor plants. They can be planted in the outdoor garden for a sensational color impact during winter.

Growing tips:

Most Poinsettia plants are sold when in full color. After getting a Poinsettia home it should be watered thoroughly. The plant can be kept indoors for a few weeks. A bright spot with good air movement is best. Low light will result in the bottom leaves turning yellow and falling off. Water the plants only when the soil becomes dry. Always give enough water so that at least half the quantity given drains off from the bottom of the pot. The color of the bracts lasts from November to April. After the bracts fade the plants should be shifted to the outdoor garden.
GROWING THE POINSETTIA AFTER COLOR HAS FADED.
The Poinsettia is a short day plant. This means that it flowers (develops color) when the days become short and nights become long. This naturally happens with us in winter. Once summer comes and the days become longer the Poinsettia begins to develop its green leaves. The plant then goes into its growing phase. The plant should be placed in a well-lit location. Full sunlight is also okay. Prune the Poinsettia plant in July first week to half the flowering height required. (If you want the plant to be 60 cms high then cut it down to 30 cms.) In case repotting is to be done it should be done in June. Use a big pot (30 cms will do) in case you want to grow a large specimen) Pinch (remove the growing tip) to encourage branching. The plants can be pinched after 5 to 6 leaves develop. Pinching will result in a bushy and rounded plant. Do not pinch after 15th August as it may interfere with the color development. The Poinsettia is a quick grower, fertilizers will help it grow better. Use any water-soluble fertilizers as per instructions given on the label.
