I'm not going to try to convince anyone that we grow purple Poinsettias in
Texas....I was at the grower purchasing some poinsettias. The girl who waited
on me had just sprayed one of the white flowers purple. I think I'll stay
a bit more traditional....and now that I have poinsettias
I feel a bit more like Christmas can come!

Beautiful color, but I think red is my favorite.

Well, you could have fooled me -- you almost did. My camera is a bit squeamish about some reds, but I didn't think it could be that! It is pretty. Weird, but pretty. I'm with you, though -- I'll look, then go pick up a plain old red one!

Wow, so they spray these plants purple... now that's gotta be real good for the leaves :) Might work for Easter but not for me on Christmas... give me red or white.

Nice colour... but better in vivid red!

They're perfect if you're an LSU fan like I am.

Heh, Petesie maybe you should'v tried to put it over on us. I'd have bought your story. Or thought you'd done a really good job in PS. I'll take the red, thanks.
