When Life Was Still Normal 2020

I bought this poinsettia on Black Friday (November) 2019.
Six months later, it's still growing nicely and still showing color.

1,901,783 confirmed cases of COVID-19
109,142 American Deaths

News Here: Our city "has 3rd consecutive day of triple-digit rise in new COVID-19 cases. For the third consecutive day, the metro area has added more than 100 new coronavirus cases each day."

We're still at home. Since the COVID pandemic isn't going to go away on its own, it looks like we're in for a fairly long Shelter-in-Place until a vaccine or treatment is found. Meanwhile, we're enjoying memories of life BEFORE the pandemic. This beautiful poinsettia's lasting so long amazes me. It's a reminder of how things used to be and will again be someday.

They are indeed a beautiful plant Liz, you must have it positioned in a favorable spot to do so well in this wonderful shot.

Great colors and lighting, and it shows so well against that background.
