Natures Children
POinsettia
(Euphorbia pulcherrima)

vironment, where climate and mois-
ture are of vital importance, the
plant does we'll. Therefore, for us
to grow the poinsettia we must con-
troll temperature, humidity and the
amount of sunlight the plant must
have, as well as give it the soil 1t
needs for food 1t was found that
too much water will cause the
plant to go to sleep just as a low
temperature will. And once your
plant has decided to take rest,
nothing can persuade it to post
pone that nap. Cold just benumbs
it to the point it cannot take it
but heat with enough moisture is
just right. This moisture may be
given it by spraying your plant with
lukewarm water each day if you live
in very hot apartment. At home
the temperature is usually well
governed. Do not give your plant
too much water to drink by the root
route. Excessive water in the soil
will start your plant on its way to
being a sleepy head.
In March, the pOlnSettla should
begin its natural sleep period Cut
off the blossoms which remain on
your plant and two, perhaps three
leaves from the top. Then take
your plant to a cool dark place in
your basement and let it alone until
the middle Of April. Then remove
the plant from its pot, wash its
roots in warm water, plant it in q
larger home with equal parts of
loan, leaf mold and sand. When it
has settled its roots comfortably
which it will do in a few weeks,
they should be fed with manure
water until the yellow flowers ap-
pear in the center of the bracts. The
plant should be kept where it may
enjoy the sunshine and not get
chilled. Water the transplanted
plant carefully the first few weeks
New plants are made from the old
ones and several young plants in q
large pot will make a handsome and
colorful display. The most beautiful
poinSettias can be grown in the
house where sunny windows inten-
sify the heat the plant so dearly
loves.
