PRETTY IN PINK

So many shades to choose from.

Poinsettias have become the 

the "flower of Christmas,"

and it's not even the flower

whose color we enjoy.

(It's the leaf or bract

that shows its colors.)

The poinsettia was first brought

to North America by

Joel Roberts Poinsett,

our country's first ambassador

to Mexico and founder of

the National Institute of Science.
