Poinsettia in June. (Euphorbia)


Poinsettias or euphorbias bloom freely when the nights are long. This was taken on a magnificent winter day in the Pittwater area north of Sydney. We were enjoying a magnificent bushwalk and visited this little town to find really friendly locals.


This poinsettia is growing in a sheltered position 


The same magnificent specimen from further back in Sydney in June, early winter.
Poinsettia growing in exposed area, with fewer bracts.
