i recieved a poincettia for christmas..my question is....what is the best way to care for a pointcettia@watering,should it have direct light or not and is it true that it can be put in a dark place when the leaves are gone and it can bloom again next year?
also how to water the plant......thank you so much for your time and consideration......happy holidays

I live in Florida and have seen pointcettias in gardens. I would like to plant my pointcettia in the garden. What kind of care, light and soil does it need?
Thank you.
