How Green Is My Thumb



I have two poinsettia plants in my office: a red/pink one and a white one. The white one, I retrieved from a garbage can a few years ago. The red/pink one I bought, because it had many branches with pink flowers and one branch with red flowers, and I've always been attracted to mutants.



Normally, it's very hard to make poinsettias reflower and since they are relatively cheap seasonal plants, most people just ditch them, once they stop flowering. Last year, I managed to make them reflower, but this year, they decided that they don't need my help and are now beginning to rebloom all by themselves, just in time for Christmas.


Am I good or what?
