| Poinsettias in the Garden Tequesta, FL December 9, 2022 |
It has been since I went to college at the University of Miami during the mid-1970s that I have lived in South Florida during the Christmas season.
I have always enjoyed the Christmas light-wrapped palm trees, but this year I have noticed a different outdoor decorating aspect: poinsettias!
The poinsettias are everywhere in gardens. They are primarily used as border color, like impatiens and pansies are used during other seasons. They are stunning because of the bright red color.
And because I grew up in the north I always thought poinsettias were strictly indoors plants--of course I did; freezing temperatures kill them.
