Default Poinsettia

In article , says...
My wife was given a poinsttia (from Sainsburys) just under a week ago.
It is at floor level in a centrally heated room and about six feet from
the window. It is dropping what appear to be heathy leaves at an
alarming rate. It is not overwatered (compost is just damp)

What does the panel think?

Too warm and dry
