  • Water when the potting soil feels dry to the touch, but before the plant wilts.
  • Avoid allowing the plant to sit in water for more than 30 minutes, otherwise the roots will die and rot. Watch the decorative foil wraps or plastic pot covers that come with many poinsettias -- these wraps often trap excess water.
  • Drain out the excess after watering or poke a hole in the cover and place the pot on a plate or saucer to catch the draining water.
