Hi Jan, here's some info! I actually didn't know that you could plant a poinsettia outside, that's very cool! https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/poinsettia/outdoor-poinsettia-plants.htm
Hi. Unless you live in a tropical climate, that's not an option. You can however, put it in a pot and bring it in for the winter months under a grow light. Provide it filtered light in the summer and water well. Good luck!
What zone are you in Jan? If in a mild enough climate, yes you can. Betty and GrandmasHouseDIY provided excellent reference sites. They turn out beautifully and will grow into lovely shrubs. The last apartment I lived in had one right outside my front door. Pretty and easy to care for too once established.
