Hi everyone, this is my first message in the forum, I'm here to ask for help for my poinsettia.

I bought it last Christmas and repotted it immediately, using a larger pot and generic ground. It had been doing fine since then, but in the past few days its leaves started drying and dropping suddendly.

I always kept it in my bedroom, and I was careful not to water it unless the soil felt dry. I live in Lubiana, and it's been kinda cold and cloudy for the past few weeks, so it didn't get too much light, but I seem to understand it shouldn't be a problem. Clearly, I open the window a few times every day, but I hope the temperature never dropped so much as to harm it.

Any suggestions? I'd really like to save it!
Thanks!
