Christmas Cactus

Christmas cactus are so beautiful that they may outshine the ornaments on your tree. These are among the more durable seasonal plants, lasting for decades. Different kinds of flowers bloom at different times of the year, including Thanksgiving and Easter.

Poinsettia

Poinsettias are almost as timeless as Christmas movies! Choose plants with little yellow blooms, known as cyathia, in the centre of the coloured foliage. If you choose a plant that is oozing pollen or has dropped its yellow blossoms, it is beyond its peak and won't survive the season.

Cyclamen

These cool-season plants can withstand temperatures in the 40s, which makes them attractive in the winter. With appropriate conditions, they can bloom for more than eight weeks.

Norfolk Island Pine

Because this long-lasting plant is native to the South Pacific, it cannot be grown outside in most of the country. If you don't have room for a large tree, it makes an ideal tabletop tree, but its branches tend to get weighed down fast, so use lightweight decorations.
