Posted 24/12/2025 as the way to get a plant into Pending has changed.
 
GETTING THE POINSETTIA GIFT:
 
You can buy one for yourself (it's free) or you can use the self-gifting link below:
 
https://www.fairylandgame.com/fbfairy/req.php?r=poinsettia
 
IF YOU WANT TO TRY FOR DIFFERENT COLOURS OF THE BAUBLE POT, YOU CAN ONLY DO THIS BY USING THE SELF GIFTING LINK (SEE FURTHER INFORMATION BELOW).

The seed is also available free from the Misc section of the Seed Shop, so you can plant them in your own choice of pot.
 
CHOOSING THE COLOUR OF POINSETTIA PLANTS USING YOUR OWN POTS
 
There are three different colours of Poinsettia: red, white and pink.  Which you get depends on the final digit of the pot ID number as follows:
 
  Red    :   0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
  Pink   :   6, 7
  White :   8, 9
 
You can plant the Poinsettias in your own choice of pot, which means that you can choose the colour of flower you get.  Unfortunately this can't be done on a phone or tablet anymore, only on a PC or laptop.
 
Using a PC or laptop, from the storage area you can see the ID number of an empty pot if you hover your mouse over it, right-click Use, then click Inspect.  This brings up a box of text, and the pot ID number is the eight digit number in brackets after the words "usePot".  Someone recently pointed out that some laptops don't have a mouse/pointer device with the choice of a right button; if this is the case you can't use this method unless you can use a mouse with a right button.

DIFFERENT COLOURS OF POINSETTIA FROM PURCHASED POINSETTIAS, OR FROM THE SELF-GIFTING LINK
 
The purchased poinsettias, or those from the self-gifting link, will always come in red baubles.  The method for getting different colours is outlined below.  You will need to use that method if you want different colours of bauble.

With the exception of the small red bauble, each colour of the ordinary bauble has the same final digit to the pot number so will always give you the same colour of Poinsettia.
 
Black or white: pink Poinsettia
Small gold or large red: white Poinsettia
All other colours: red Poinsettia

The same pot re-used will always give you the same colour of Poinsettia.  The small red bauble doesn't automatically give a particular colour because they don't all have the same final digit as the other baubles do, but the colour of Poinsettia you will get from the individual pot will still always be the same.
 
GETTING DIFFERENT COLOURS OF BAUBLE
 
(YOU CANNOT DO THIS BY BUYING YOUR OWN POINSETTIA.  YOU MUST USE THE SELF-GIFTING LINK FOR THIS METHOD).

When you use the self-gifting link and your garden has space for the plant, you will always get a red bauble.  To get the other colours you need to make sure that your garden is full, so that when you click the self-gifting link, it goes to you Pending area.   You can use free pots to fill your garden if it isn't already full, but make sure that at least one of the items in your garden is one which you can send to storage.
 
Once you have the poinsettia waiting in your Pending area, remove one of the items from your garden and click the Pending gift to send it to your garden.  Keep repeating until you get the colour of bauble you want, always making sure that you keep the garden full so the plant goes to the Pending area, because this is the only way to get colours other than red.
 
It may take a while to get the colour/s you want, as there is no pattern to the order in which the colours arrive.
