Instead of a bouquet at this evening’s #concert I received a gorgeously enormous #cuetlaxōchitl (Euphorbia pulcherrima). It was a chilly post-performance trek, so I hope a bit of TLC in a warm space will encourage it to maintain its happy vibrancy.

I’m so used to seeing it this time of year but didn’t know much about the history of the #poinsettia #cuetlaxochitl #flower. Native to Mexico, it is now patented so growers have to pay a fee to plant and sell. Some more info here: https://www.axios.com/2022/12/13/poinsettia-history-mexico-christmas-plant #christmas
