Poinsettias

In the BVI, Poinsettias are not just for Christmas.
























The temperate climate in the BVI means poinsettias can be grown as perennials in your garden. To get the brightest red leaves though still takes a bit of enterprise, as the poinsettias need a full 12 hours of darkness for the green leaves to change to red.

Whoever owns this lovely example on the Cane Garden Bay Road seems to be doing quite a good job.
