Looking at the scores of unsold poinsettias in my local supermarket, it

thrown out at New Year.
I don't know but probably the great majority. Not very keen on them.
however about 30 years ago I saw one that was really spectacular and
quite unforgettable. It was located in a private garden on the
eastern outskirts of Chania in Crete and it was at least 10 feet tall
with a 15 feet spread. I must see if I can dig up a photo.
How hardy are they?
My mum has got two.
