The tradition of a poinsettia at Christmas began in 16th century Mexico, where legend tells of a girl who was too poor to provide a gift for the celebration of LA NAVIDAD or the birth of Jesus, and was inspired to sow seeds in front of a church altar. The crimson blossoms that sprouted from the seeds became poinsettias.
