Christmas Countdown: Day 8

5 poinsettias all in a row.

Cap said it felt like a suburban mall, but I like poinsettias. I'm sure Martha Stewart would be horrified that I left the foil wrappers on but they are somewhat hidden by the back of our couch. Last year I bought two red ones one of which was transplanted and is still thriving in our front yard although its leaves are green now, not red. This year I chose these gorgeous cream and pink ones.

Poinsettias ARE Christmas! Can you move them to the garden? I recall them being standard garden plantings in Palo Alto decades ago.
