Reply:I have poinsettias, Christmas Cactus, and Kalenchoe. The Kalenchoe has nice foliage after it's done blooming and will re-flower later in the year.

Reply:Christmas Poinsettia
Reply:I would say the poinsetta. Every time I see that plant it really makes me feel like Christmas has arrived
Reply:I love the various colored blooms of the Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera bridgesii) because it is a refreshing change from the Poinsettia. Plus, the plant is very easy to take care of once it has stopped blooming. Water sparingly and give it bright, indirect sunlight and it will take care of itself. I've had mine for over 10 years and they never fail to bloom for me every winter.
Reply:I like the christmas cannabis tree.





The gift that keeps giving.
Reply:I love Christmas cactus it has the most beautiful flower and comes in a variety of colors as for your comment on poinsettias they last as long as you grow them i never throw mine away they grow all year i always buy a new one at Xmas time and plant it with the others to create a tall short look


MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU

Reply:I kinda like the Christmas cactus-they're different and they really last a long time.
Reply:It would have to be Amaryllids and then the Holiday cacti.
