I spent a couple of hours visiting Brookside Gardens’ Colors of the Season display  in the conservatories recently. One aspect of the dispaly that really caught my eye was the variety of poinsettia (euphorbia pucherimma) on display this year. Here are a few of my favorites that I photographed.

The Colors of the Season display will be on exhibit at Brookside Gardens until January 4. If you get a chance, stop by and see all the wonderful poinsettias.
