WORLD'S BEST POINSETTIA SALE
Here's a hot tip for finding the most lush and healthy poinsettias for your Christmas decor. Each year the students in the horticulture department at Orange Coast College grow beautiful poinsettias in their greenhouses on campus and sell them to fund future projects.
The tradition continues on Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Choose from a variety of colors: red winter rose, white, monet and classic red. The most popular six-inch pot boasts three plants, rather than one, making it a much fuller display. Other sizes include 5-inch pots, 12 inch bowls, centerpieces and hanging baskets. Prices vary from $5 to $40.
To avoid the sale rush, pre-order your poinsettias today and pick them up before the sale on Thursday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Orange Coast College is at 2701 Fairview Road in Costa Mesa. enter from Adams Avenue and follow signs to the horticulture department. 714.432.0202.
