#1 Exposure to cold.
Just a few minutes in temperatures below 10°C can cause poinsettia leaves or bracts to drop.

#2 Lack of water.

If you find your poinsettia wilting, with its leaves and bracts drooping limply like sun-wilted lettuce, and the soil feels dry to the touch, it’s a clear sign of underwatering. Typically, the leaves regain firmness after a good watering, but a few days later, the lower leaves may start to yellow and fall off.

#3 Overwatering issue

A poinsettia will respond to overwatering much like it does to underwatering: its leaves wilt and eventually drop. This happens because, when the potting mix stays too wet for too long.

#4 Temperature Fluctuations

poinsettias are sensitive to temperature changes, especially cold drafts or hot air from heaters."
A stable environment helps maintain its health.

#5 Lack of light.

Poinsettias need bright, indirect light. Too little light can weaken the plant, causing yellowing leaves.
