Habitué(e)s of this venerable group may recall that I acquired a sprig
of poinsettia last Christmas which just kept on growing. I put it out
in a pot in the spring and it's just kept on growing in the garden.
It's now about a foot or so high and seems perfectly happy.

Should I bring it in again over winter? Can I make it go red for
Christmas?

It's just a baby. We have one that almost covers the front room
window. The only way to get poinsettia to go red for Christmas is too
totally obscure all light for about a month. Put yours in a very dark
location now. We don't have a big enough dark enclosure. Fortunately
it looks quite nice without the red leaves.
