[QUOTE="Trick-or-Treat Stevens, post: 402071, member: 11"] I remember that. Poinsettias are like that I have found. She will always be remembered. How is [B]Matilda[/B]? Has she decided to stay alive? Poinsettias seem so delicate, one wrong move and they are gone. I also wonder if the can communicate with each other or at least know when another of their kind are near them. BTW, how are they doing? Well this past month with [B]Streetie[/B] as been one of the roughest. On 3 May she was taken to my Mother's garden after spending the past seven or so months with me, only briefly emerging once on 8 April for the Eclipse. She looked okay on her way down but soon after her arrival, the first week or so, three of her four remaining main limbs started to die off. No good at all. Luckily so far the final limb has remained and new leaves are growing so she may get to see the Summer again. I check her each time I stop by and I was shedding tears in mid-May for her. She's an old Poinsettia and surely has some illness but she has found the strength to make it to June so far. Here is a photo of her last Sunday, 9 June.
