The poinsettia (/p??n's?ti?/p or /??n's?t?/) (Euphorbia pulcherrima) is a commercially important flower varieties of the diverse spurge family. The types is indigenous to Mexico. It is particularly well known for its red and renewable foliage and is widely used in Christmas floral exhibits. It derives its common English name from Joel Roberts Poinsett,[3] the first USA Minister to Mexico,[4] who introduced the plant to the united states in 1825.

Euphorbia pulcherrima is a shrub or small tree, getting a level of 0 typically.6-4 metres (2 ft 0 in-13 ft 1 in). The herb bears dark inexperienced dentate leaves that solution 7-16 centimetres (2.8-6.3 in) in length. The colored bracts--which 're normally flaming red but can be orange, pale green, cream, red, white, or marbled--are often recognised incorrectly as rose petals because of their groupings and colors, but are actually leaves.[citation needed] The colors of the bracts are manufactured through photoperiodism, and therefore they might need darkness (12 hours at a time for at least five days in a row) to change color. At the same time, the plants require numerous light during the full day for the brightest color. The flowers of the poinsettia are unassuming and don't attract pollinators. They are grouped within small yellowish structures within the center of each leaf bunch, and are called cyathia. The poinsettia is local to Mexico. It is found in the wild in deciduous tropical forests at moderate elevations from southern Sinaloa down the complete Pacific coast of Mexico to Chiapas and Guatemala. Additionally it is found in the inside in the hot, dried out forests of Guerrero seasonally, Oaxaca, and Chiapas. Accounts of E. pulcherrima growing in the wild in Nicaragua and Costa Rica have yet to be proved by botanists. You will discover over 100 cultivated types of poinsettia.

The Aztecs used the plant to produce red dye and as an antipyretic medication. In Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs, the plant is called Cuitlaxochitl, meaning "flower that grows in residues or soil" Today it is known in Mexico and Guatemala as Flor de Noche Buena, meaning Christmas Eve Flower. In Spain it is known as Flor de Pascua or Pascua, indicating Easter flower. In Peru and Chile, the place became known as Crown of the Andes. In Turkey, it is called Atat?rk's flower because Atat?rk, the creator of the Republic, liked this blossom and made a significant contribution to its cultivation in Turkey.[citation needed] In Hungarian, it is called Santa Claus' Flower, and it's widely used as a Christmas decoration.

The plant's relationship with Christmas started out in 16th-century Mexico, where star tells of a girl, commonly called Pepita or Maria, who was simply too poor to give a present for the celebration of Jesus' birthday and was inspired by an angel to assemble weeds from the roadside and place them in front of the chapel altar. Crimson blossoms sprouted from the weeds and became beautiful poinsettias. From the 17th century, Franciscan friars in Mexico included the crops in their Christmas celebrations. The star-shaped leaf design is thought to symbolize the Celebrity of Bethlehem, and the red color represents the blood vessels sacrifice through the crucifixion of Jesus. Poinsettias are popular Holiday accessories in homes, churches, office buildings, and somewhere else across North America. They are available in good sized quantities from grocery, drug, and hardware stores. In the United States, 12 is Country wide Poinsettia Day dec.
