POINSETTIAS, ORGANIC IS BETTER

Simonato, a specialist organic aromatic plant company based in Due Carrare, is growing Poinsettias again this year.

Ready to adorn your homes over the Christmas period, organic Poinsettias are grown in areas dedicated to organic aromatic plants, without the use of chemical elements or pesticides.

Though very popular over the Christmas period, and typically cast aside in January, it takes very little to encourage this plant to flower year after year: avoid heat sources such as radiators and stoves, give it plenty of light (but not direct light), and water the soil twice a week, making sure not to let stagnant water gather under the pot.

A little-known fact about Poinsettias is that they are not all solid red.
Simonato also grows other colours of Poinsettia, from speckled red to light pink, and even a very striking creamy white/yellow variety.
