Mrs Hysteresis gets a couple of Poinsettia's every Christmas and they usually last until late January even early February. The two she has received this year, both from different suppliers, have been very disappointing.
Although looking healthy on delivery, one lasted a week and the second is on it's last legs after only two weeks.
She has looked after them in a similar way to past years, ie out of draughts, not in direct sunlight, the pots well drained and the compost kept damp.
Any ideas anyone as to what may be the problem?
