These cute poinsettias are small enough to make themselves at home in the cosiest flat or office yet bold and full enough to bring Christmas cheer to a room.

Current Description

We're delighted to have some more of these lovely mini poinsettias arriving soon. These compact poinsettias are a perfect size for a table top, desktop or anywhere with limited space. Just as pictured, they are lovely and colourful and this year they will be presented in a choice of either the white pots pictured or a red or gold ceramic pot. As soon they are in for the new season we'll update this page to add the pot choices but in the meantime you are welcome to add any special instructions below.

Note: Poinsettias are sensitive to low temperatures and so we add extra packaging to protect them from the cold whilst in transit. However, we strongly recommend selecting a delivery date from Tuesday to Saturday so your beautiful poinsettia can be delivered to its warm home as quickly as possible to prevent damage in transit.

Sent this as a gift to my Brother who is in a nursing home, to brighten up his room. He was very pleased with it and is the envy of the other residents!

These instructions are sent with the plant gift

Poinsettias originally come from Mexico, but their rich coloured bracts and winter flowering make them a very popular festive plant in the UK. Your Poinsettia will flower for many weeks if you follow a few basic rules.

These British grown poinsettias are stronger plants than the imported plants you often see in supermarkets but they are still quite tender and don’t like being too hot or cold. Keep them away from the glass if next to a window, away from a radiator and away from cold draughts.

As it is in a small pot, your plant will need regular watering. Water the soil putting through a third or a litre of water and allow the excess to drain away. Alternatively stand the whole pot in water for 20 mins, then let any excess water drain before placing it back into its pot cover. The top of the soil should seem only slightly damp when you touch it – not soggy.

Most people treat their poinsettias as annuals and throw them out after the festive season. However, they can be grown through summer and made to reflower, but this does require some very specific and tricky to accomplish light requirements for months leading up to Christmas.

If you want to keep your plant going for next Christmas, rest the plant - decrease the watering and prune off of the red bracts back to only green leaves. In late spring repot into a larger pot. Make sure the soil mass is moistened and place in a sunny window, or in a conservatory. You will need to pinch out the growing shoots to encourage branching and feed and water regularly. If you can keep your plant looking healthy until next autumn, then you can start the process of leaving it in a dark spot with no light for several hours a day to bring on flowering.

Problem solving:

The most common problems with poinsettias are caused by cold which will lead to shrivelling of the coloured leaves – they must always be kept above 10C. Poinsettias are from a desert country so be careful not to overwater and if your plant does get a little too wet you will need to let the soil dry out before re-establishing the normal routine. If the leaves start to droop, then it is likely it is thirsty and a quick drink will usually perk it back up.
