Default Anyone growing poinsettias?

I usually buy the smallest poinsettia and grow it for 3-4 years. Sometimes I grow some from cuttings, they root easily in water.
Contrary to popular belief it's NOT dificult to get it reflower after the initial display when purchased. I have them on the windowsill in unheated room where the light is almost never turned on. When buds appears I bring them to the living room where they bloom from mid december til late january.
