Watch Out for Whiteflies on Poinsettias
Unfortunately, poinsettia gifts may come with an unwanted guest—whiteflies! These tiny insects, about 1/10 inch long, are covered with a white powdery substance, which gives them their name. Whiteflies lay their eggs on the undersides of leaves, where they also feed. In addition to poinsettias, they are especially attracted to other common indoor plants such as coleus, geranium, hibiscus, fuchsia, and begonia.
