Poinsettia is a seasonal flowering plant known for its colorful bracts and strong decorative presence.
Poinsettia features rich green foliage accented by brightly colored bracts in shades of red, white, pink, or variegated tones. These bracts are modified leaves that surround the plant’s small central flowers (cyathia), creating a bold, full display of color. The plant develops a compact, bushy structure with layered growth, resulting in a dense, symmetrical presentation during its peak seasonal display. This plant is widely used in interior and seasonal environments for its vibrant color, strong holiday association, and high-impact decorative appeal.

· Bright bracts deliver strong seasonal color impact
