The poinsettia is a commercially important flowering plant species of the diverse spurge family Euphorbiaceae. Indigenous to Mexico and Central America, the poinsettia was first described by Europeans in 1834. It is particularly well known for its red and green foliage and is widely used in Christmas floral displays. [...].
The colored bracts—which are normally flaming red, with cultivars being orange, pale green, cream, pink, white, or marbled—are often mistaken for flower petals because of their groupings and colors, but are actually leaves. [...] Wikipedia
The Richard H. Driehaus Museum immerses visitors in one of the grandest residential buildings of 19th-century Chicago, the Gilded Age home of banker Samuel Mayo Nickerson. Philanthropist Richard H. Driehaus founded the museum on April 1, 2003 with a vision to influence today’s built environment by preserving and promoting architecture and design of the past. To realize his vision, Mr. Driehaus commissioned a five-year restoration effort to preserve the structure and its magnificent interiors. Today the galleries feature surviving furnishings paired with elegant, historically-appropriate pieces from the Driehaus Collection of Fine and Decorative Arts, including important works by such celebrated designers as Herter Brothers and Louis Comfort Tiffany.
Hope everyone who celebrates has a wonderful Christmas and a peaceful and healthy 2017.

This beautiful bright red leaf colour of the Pointsettia is a welcome blaze of colour in the grey of our winter. Found in the Fitzroy Gardens near the Sinclair Cottage. For my 100 Flower Project: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poinsettia
“In the midst of winter, when nature lies dormant, poinsettias remind us that beauty and life still thrive.”
