Thank you for sharing

Poinsettias do well in Lahore, perhaps they have gone out of fashion.

Imported Poinsettia in Pots don't perform well in Lahore and require great effort to re-bloom.
Thats why I was thinking how this tree type is performing so well in here. Any logic to that?

these are artificially forced to bloom... after 2-3 years their natural blooming cycle resolves...

So i should not do the effort of planting tree type poinsettia. As they will revert to green foliage after 2-3 years

Poinsettia have green leaves... these colorful ones are flowering bracts which emerge only during short day length...
