Happy Poinsettia Day!
December 12 is National Poinsettia Day. The poinsettia, a native of Central America and Mexico was named for Joel Roberts Poinsett,the first U.S. Ambassador to Mexico. Poinsett discovered the plants during a Christmas trip to Taxco, Mexico in 1828.
Ambassador Poinsett,a physician and botanist,was so charmed by the plant,known as Flores de Noche Buena(Flowers of The Holy Night), that he had several of them sent back to his home in South Carolina so he could grow them in his own greenhouses. For several years afterward he gave them to friends as Christmas presents.
By 1836 the plant had become a very popular Christmas plant in the United States and became known as the Poinsettia in his honor.
In 1851 Congress declared that December 12,the day of Poinsett's death, would be celebrated as Poinsettia Day in remembrance of the man who introduced this lovely plant to the American people.

Celebrate November With Chrysanthemum Flowers
Mums are so common that we often take them for granted but the truth is that this flower has been grown and valued by humans since centuries before the birth of Christ. Chrysanthemums were first cultivated in China as early as 1500 B.C. and were first used as a food and medicinal herb.
Chrysanthemum flowers and sprouts were (and still are) eaten raw in salads and the roots were boiled and drunk as a beverage. The Chinese were so enamored with the plant that they named a city Chu-Hsien (Chrysanthemum City) in its honor.
All mum flowers were originally the familiar single yellow daisy and it wasn't until the Japanese started growing them around the 8th century A.D. that more ornamental flowers were developed. The chrysanthemum remains Japan's most popular flower and is used in family crests and in the seal of the Emperor. The Imperial Order of the Chrysanthemum is Japan's highest Order of Chivalry. Japan also celebrates the annual National Chrysanthemum Day,also known as the Festival of Happiness.
In many European countries particularly Germany,Belgium,and Austria,mums are seen as the flower of death and are only used in funerals or as memorial flowers in cemeteries.People in these countries probably wouldn't enjoy receiving a bouquet of chrysanthemum flowers so be aware of this when sending flowers internationally.
Chrysanthemum flowers were originally all yellow but today they can be found in many colors including orange,red,white,pink,and shades of purple. Many forms of the flower are available from single daisies to elegant spider mums to the giant football mums favored for corsages. Yellow,orange and burnished red mums are some of the most popular colors and would be perfect to give to someone whose birthday is in November.
