Do you know about EUPHORBIA PULCHERRIMA RED flower?
Euphorbia pulcherrima is Pointsettia. Pointsettias like to be moist but not soggy. If yours has lost all it's leaves, it is either too warm in your house or the plant is too wet or too dry. It will not grow new leaves until next year(if it lives). If it doesn't look too terrible, keep it unitil the holidays are over. If it looks bad I would chuck it.
Reply:Loss of leaves following wilting cause: Overwatering is the likely culprit; the surface of the soil must be dry before water is applied. When the soil around the roots is dry the leaves will wilt and fall.


Loss of leaves without wilting cause: If the temperature is too low or if the plant has been subjected to hot or freezing draughts then the leaves will suddenly fall. Another cause of leaf fall is poor light. Poinsettias need maximum light in winter. The plant needs not less than 55-60 deg. F during the flowering season.After flowering the plant is usually discarded.
Reply:This Euphoria flower in the colder months so it is partly deciduous.





One thing,they do not have red flowers.The flowers are actually white/cream.They are just leaves,called bracts,Whig attract pollinates to the plant.It is the same oft the bougainvillea vine
