What is the Christmas flower?

Which flower is it?

In fact, this seemingly mysterious flower is not really mysterious. It is very common. It is the poinsettia that we often see in our lives. We often place them in the yard, inside the house and other suitable places. They are festive flowers that appear more frequently. They come in many varieties and colors, but they are all festive colors that tend to be reddish pink, so they are most suitable for use in happy festivals. It is not only suitable for various festivals, but also suitable for weddings. If it is matched with small white flowers, it also means "my heart is burning".

Origin of the name

The name was given by the Mexicans in 1825. It was a Christmas long time ago. A little girl was still wandering at night. Not only did she not have any gifts, but she couldn’t even guarantee enough food and clothing. The little girl was found and taken in by a kind-hearted lady, who told her that as long as she was polite and well behaved, she would receive gifts. The child agreed to the request and walked into a church. The women inside turned into beautiful poinsettias, which was the child's gift. That’s why they got their name, and this flower has a special status in Mexico.

Tips for displaying poinsettias

The entire plant of this flower is slightly poisonous, so try not to get scratched by it when decorating. But there is no need to be too afraid. Even though their juice can be harmful, it won't be a problem as long as you don't get scratched by them. There is another point that we must pay special attention to. Festivals are the happiest times for children. If you have children, you must keep an eye on them and do not let them eat this kind of flowers.

But then again, even non-toxic flowers and plants may have some bacteria and insects on them, and it is never a good thing for children to eat them, so parents need to be more careful.
