Looking at the scores of unsold poinsettias in my local supermarket, it
made me wonder what % of the world's poinsettias actually get sold.

The best place for poinsettias is in places like Barbados where they
grow into large bushes and don't need to be hidden in cupboards or
black bags to encourage them to form red bracts.
There aren't many plants I dislike but they are one. Every year I hope
and pray that nobody gives me one for Christmas!
