They are a colorful symbol of the holiday season. Poinsettias are in stores, restaurants, churches, and your home. Known for their attractive red and green foliage, they are widely used in Christmas floral displays. And, they are great holiday gifts. With just a little care, their bright blooms last well beyond the holidays.
There’s nothing better than the smell and look of a live Christmas tree. Selecting a fresh, healthy tree is as important as it’s appearance. Keeping it fresh for al long as possible, is equally important. Before you head out to the Christmas tree farm or your favorite corner tree lot, be sure to check out our tips and suggestions.
