Holly bushes have been part of the Christmas tradition! You can plant them in the garden for year-round color. Cultivation of the plant can take up to two years though, so be patient. Remember to check out some of the Christmas celebrations going on in your town!
Choose a plant that is about two times taller than the diameter of the pot. Look for flowers that are fresh, green or red-tipped and not covered with pollen. Dryness could cause the plant to have yellow leaves. If the soil is wet and the plant is wilted–the plant has root rot. A sunny window is an ideal place for your poinsettia. Water when dry and be sure the container has proper drainage.
