Thank you all - I feel more fortified in my conviction to plant my monster back - it is very leggy and it do want it denser and bushier. I've always kept it in shade outside and watered well, so I'll continue along that manner. Hopefully I'll have 3 much more attactive Poinsettias by mid-summer. I'll post photos then.
Have a great day and stay warm if you're dealing with the arctic plunge!
