how to care for poinsettias after christmas

After Christmas, poinsettias can be cared for in a few simple ways to help them thrive. 1. Repotting: Poinsettias are sensitive to root disturbance, so repotting should only be done if necessary. If the plant needs to be repotted, choose a pot slightly larger than the root ball and use a well-draining soil mix. Avoid overpotting, which can cause root rot. 2. Light: Poinsettias require bright light but not direct sunlight, so keep them in an area with good light but away from windows and other direct sources of light.
