Poinsettia Dilemma...

The problem, for me, with poinsettias is that their beauty outlives their use as a seasonal decoration...yesterday the afternoon sun struck this plant in a heart-warming way...just what I needed to get away from taking more snow pics...So do I throw it out because I am tired of it and Christmas is over?...



I tried making this collage with Picasa then uploaded it thru Flickr to make a larger image...still learning...
