Hey there! My poinsettia is not looking the best. Yellowing leaves, droopy leaves, and brown areas surrounding the leaves. Any suggestions as to what is causing this and how to help her?

Planta said she is not getting enough sunlight, and the humidity is low, and to mist her. I have her sitting in my kitchen on the counter about 5 feet away from a window that provides sun for 5-6 hours a day or more on sunnier days.

The sunniest room is also right next to the kitchen area where she is. HELP!

They can be absolute jerks. I repotted mine and all the leaves fell off but one. Just make sure you’re letting the water drain out the bottom when you water it. Let the soil dry out before you water it again.
