The leaves will turn yellowy white soon and is pretty when it does.

These plant are very common in Cal. They can grow large to almost 25 feet here.

We have the World's leading hybridizing Poinsettia Ranch (Paul Ecke Ranch) in Encinitas, CA which is located in Northern San Diego County. They have almost every color under the rainbow with the strangest looking bracts you've ever seen of this plant. Unfortunately, they almost never let the public in for tours...it's strictly whole sale and genetic research.

Wow, that is indeed interesting Delonix1, how they do grow large and tall. Must be a beautiful sight to see them in all their colours.

Thanks for the link as well:-)
