I'd like to buy a poinsettia in a small pot for Xmas, but they are very difficult to find. Yet, some bars and restaurants have them on the tables. I have looked for them in almost every supermarket, without luck. Not even the nurserys seem to have them.

Any hints, where I could ask for them are much appreciated.

did you go to viveros? there is one on manolo tavarez justo, almost opposite to new hidalisa store. you may even check hidalisa itself.
another vivero is outside the city, on a way to sosua, on your left.
another one is in torre alta, off the main street.

They grow like weeks here. Each year when I cut my poinsettia down after Christmas, I put the cuttings in pots filled with soil. By the following year I have huge plants.

Thanks, I'll check those places.

For last Christmas I bought a small potted poinsettia, which I later planted in a much bigger pot so it could continue growing. It was growing happily. When we returned last month it was gone, although it has been watered during our absence. Either it has died or developed legs and walked away... :ermm:
