Euphorbia Cyathophora growing invasively in a Queensland forest. Euphorbia cyathophora, known by various names including painted spurge, dwarf poinsettia, [2] fire-on-the-mountain, paintedleaf, [2] and wild poinsettia. [3] Native to subtropical and tropical North and South America, it is widely naturalized elsewhere. [2]
The poinsettia (/ p ɔɪ n ˈ s ɛ t (i) ə /; [1] [2] [3] Euphorbia pulcherrima) is a commercially important flowering plant species of the diverse spurge family Euphorbiaceae. Indigenous to Mexico and Central America, the poinsettia was first described by Europeans in 1834.
Step 1: Water imbibition, the uptake of water, results in rupture of seed coat. Step 2: The imbibition of the seed coat results in emergence of the radicle (1) and the plumule (2); the cotyledons are unfolded (3). Step 3: This marks the final step in the germination of the seed, where the cotyledons are expanded, which are the true leaves.
1. Watch the soil temperatures. If it’s too cold, grass seed won’t germinate. If it’s too hot, the baby grass seeds will pop up, then quickly fry.

[1] This taxon was first published at genus rank under the name Poinsettia by Robert Graham in 1836. [2] [3] It was demoted to a section of Euphorbia as E. sect. Poinsettia by Henri Ernest Baillon in 1858, but promoted to subgenus rank by Homer Doliver House in 1924. A 2007 study confirmed its monophyly. [4] Its many species include:
Within 30 days of emergence the plant may flower with ripe seeds being formed between 25 and 30 days later. It is pollinated by insects which are attracted to large amounts of nectar the plant produces. [6] The stalk exudes a toxic milky white latex. The cyathia or false flowers, are located in clusters at the head of the stalk and are ...
