Festive and gorgeous, the poinsettia has been a beloved feature of Longwood’s holiday displays for decades. During this engaging class, learn more about this iconic flower as you enjoy a brief history of poinsettias in horticulture, dive into Longwood’s use of the flower, and take in a fascinating overview of poinsettia ecology. Discover how we grow our specialty forms—from our standard forms to our baskets and three-stems—and how you can keep your own poinsettias alive through the holidays—and even all year long.
