The flower most associated with the Christmas Holidays is the Poinsettia.Poinsettias are native to the Americas, originally from the Pacific Coast of Central Mexico and Guatemala.Named after the first U.S. envoy to Mexico, Joel Roberts Poinsett, who first introduced it to the United States in 1825. The Poinsettia is also called Flor de Noche Buena (Noche Buena is what people of Hispanic descent call Christmas Eve, so the translation would be Bloom or Flower of Good Night or Christmas Eve)May your Christmas Holidays be filled with many, many blooms!
