Poinsettia Pack of 8

Description

Known as la Flor de Nochebuena in Mexico, where the poinsettia is native, the Poinsettia’s Spanish name translates to the Christmas Eve Flower, and has long been associated with Christmas—ever since the 16^th century. Legend tells the story of a little girl who was too poor to afford a gift to celebrate Jesus’s birthday. Inspired by an angel, she gathers weeds from the roadside as her gift. When she lays them on the altar on Christmas Eve, they miraculously sprout their brilliant red bracts, transforming into the beautiful Flores de Nochebuena. And they have been a part of Christmas celebrations ever since.
