Upcoming Events and News
October Educational Meeting
October 21, 2026, CCRL Theater, 1:00 pm
Learning from Poinsettias, by Quinn Bracken
Poinsettias are a ubiquitous presence around the holidays and have become synonymous with the Christmas holiday. This talk will cover the origins of poinsettias as well as how they're grown and managed. We'll also discuss how some of their unique characteristics can be used to teach people about plant physiology, light requirements, and common issues when growing houseplants.
