Why National Poinsettia Day Is Great

A Christmas legend is the origin of poinsettias.

In Mexico, the day we celebrate with poinsettias is known as “La Flor de la Nochebuena,” or Flower of the Holy Night. There, a legend about a poor little girl who was heartbroken to receive no gift for Jesus’ birthday has made poinsettias revered. The child gathers weeds from the side of the road to put in the baby’s manger after an angel appears to tell him that giving a gift with love is what matters most. The weeds miraculously blossomed into beautiful red star flowers.

One of the first things that Mexico exported was poinsettias.

Mexico received its first American ambassador, Joel Roberts Poinsett. In 1828, Poinsett, who was also a passionate botanist, sent poinsettia cuttings to his hometown of Charleston, South Carolina. Early botanists thought the plant was a weed when it first appeared. Joel Roberts Poinsett passed away, and National Poinsettia Day honors his passion for this magnificent flower.

In America, poinsettias are a huge business.

California farmer Paul Ecke, Jr. is credited with founding the contemporary poinsettia industry. He is renowned for having discovered the grafting method that led to the seedlings’ branching. The flower eventually blossomed into one of the biggest and most successful companies in the United States. Poinsettias now bring in roughly $250 million a year for the US economy.
