The nursery, located at 3066 Hwy. 550, offers locals a mix of poinsettias in various color, size and price options this holiday season.

The plant should be kept away from hot or cold drafts and protected from cold winds, she said. Poinsettias grow best when kept at a temperature range of 60 to 72 degrees.
