Sweetie wanted to get some poinsettias for some friends and family members so we headed out to A New Leaf in the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow. It is a not for profit organization that provides, among other things, job training services for individuals with disabilities, and they had Poinsettias in all sorts of colors and patterns.
There is no such thing as popping in and out of a greenhouse for Sweetie. She is the gardener’s gardener.
I think she wanted one of each. We finally picked a few out. Is there anything better than flowers for Christmas? (Or any other occasion?)
Did you know, according to TLC
Poinsettia’a are not toxic.
They are originally from Mexico.
They were introduced to the United States by Dr. Joel Roberts Poinsett, the first US ambassador to Mexico.
