Poinsettia.
In some villages across the world, it is customary to leave a gift in the church on Christmas Eve for the Baby Jesus. A long time ago in Mexico, a young child was very poor and did not have a gift to give. He prayed for an answer to his problem. God looked down and saw how upset this small child was and so he answered his prayer. Where the humble child knelt a flower of vibrant color bloomed. The flower blossomed in the shape of a star with leaves of an amazing red. This flower became the childs gift. Later it became known as the Flower of the Nativity. Today the flower is called Poinsettia after Dr. Joel Robert Poinsett, and American Ambassador to Mexico who introduced it to the United States during the 1800s.
