Sold live poinsettias...stumbled across these real poinsettias by Roberta's in unique colors today!

As much as I love turquoise,  I'll pass on that one.  Give me good old red or pink.

Agreed @Kachina624 I am partial to the red and white...I already purchased Valerie's fake poinsettias in both colors...less work to maintain!

@GAQShopr53I saw Carolyn and Eric Wallien presenting these a couple of weeks ago.  I thought the blue was rather interesting as it is something I'm not likely to find at a local garden center, and definitely not the grocery store or big box home center stores.

I didn’t know they sold them either.

I’d like to see the turquoise in person before spending the money.

Please keep in mind that if you're a pet owner, these plants are poisonous to cats & dogs.

@Trix I have never seen a blue poinsettias...thanks for letting me know there was a live presentation...I may take a look to see if I can find it on QVC's youtube channel.

Last year after Christmas I planned about 5 Poinsettia plants  .They started growing during the summer time  . Now they are tall , no flowers yet . I  hope that we get some blooms soon .

I've seen the blue ones in garden stores and supermarkets.  They're just white poinsettias whose leaves have been dyed.  I think, but am not sure, it's done by feeding the plant blue water.  To me, it's a monstrosity.  Just like the poinsettas they spinkle glitter all over.  I'll stick with the natural-looking ones.

They are beautiful! Thanks for sharing them, but based on the horrible luck I've had with Roberta's, I'll stick with my local nurseries!
