Poinsetta.

[cupid04]

I received a poinsetta as a gift a few weeks ago. It was lovely and healthy when I first got it but the leaves are dropping.Can I do anything to revive it?

if you google poinsettia care, there are loads of websites with instructions but to be honest (and I am quite good with houseplants) I have never succeeded. My advice would be to regard it as disposable, chuck it and have a new one next christmas.

I keep mine in a coolish place, dont over water it and I normally keep mine till about may/June.
