How to get Pointsettia plant to start blooming again?
Well ill im in highschool and dont know “to much” about growing plants, but are biology teacher gave all of us a plant as a christmas gift(2007), and I dont like seeing things like plants die, and currently it has “red leaves” but no flowers.
How do I get it to bloom again?
Thanks
Poinsettia go through a cycle of growth… then rest.
After the “blooming” season, & when the leaves begin to drop, gradually decrease water, allowing the plant to get dry between waterings. Be careful the stem does not begin to shrivel. This is a sign the plant is too stressed and is dying. In a week or two, when the plant has acclimated to this drying process, move it to a cool spot like the basement or a heated garage. You want to keep it at about 60 degrees F.
In late spring, cut the stems back to about 4 inches and repot in a slightly larger container, with new potting soil. Water it well. Place the newly potted plant back into the brightest curtained window you have and once again keep it at a temperature of 65 – 75 degrees F. Water whenever the surface of the soil feels dry.
Watch for new growth. Once new growth appears, begin fertilizing every two weeks with a complete fertilizer. Follow fertilizer label recommendations. After all danger of frost is over, acclimate your plant for growing outdoors & then plant it or put the potted plant on a patio or porch.
In early July, pinch back each stem by about one inch to encourage a stout, well branched plant. If left unpinched, the poinsettia will grow tall and spindly.

Bring your plant indoors in the fall before it frosts. Beginning in September,keep them in darkness for 14 hours at night & in light the other part of the day.
“Put the poinsettias in a closet or other dark room at night for 14 hours – they cannot be exposed to ANY light at all.
During the day you can bring your poinsettia out for lots of sunshine for a maximum of 10 hours. These long, dark nights will encourage the poinsettia bracts to change color creating your very own holiday gift containers with bright Christmas Poinsettias!”

Around Thanksgiving, you’ll notice your plant turning leafy & the color returning. They can now stay all day in filtered sunlight. Stop fertilizing about December 15th. Keep watering and treat your plant the way you did when you first brought it home in bloom.
P.S. If you live in a warmer climate zone, like Mexico, you can leave it outside all year & it will color-up naturally.
Good luck!!! Hope this helps.
