Hello Jeanne,
Thanks for your message. I am away from home this week but briefly wanted to let you know that I have had your message. I will check with some of my colleagues and try to get back to you. My first thoughts are that the newer colour forms are hybrids and less robust than the basic species - Euphorbia pulcherrima.
Best wishes, Rosie
