My Poinsettia’s leaves have gotten pretty wilty. I moved it from my office to my house because I got a new job and he’s just been super unhappy. Any tips on caring for these guys?

Aren’t they native to Mexico? I think they like partial sun. My neighbor had one in full sun and it’s a stick now. I’ve seen another neighbor have it on the South side of their house and it thrives, growing to be at least 6ft tall. Zone 8-9

They are! They’re literal trees in the wild! It really liked my office which was pretty much all artificial light. Just can’t seem to figure out what’s causing it issues at the house.

Maybe it’s the temperature? At your house is it really hot or really cold in comparison to your office?
