I recently found out that the red "petals" of the cuetlaxochitl are actually leaves and the flowers are the bits in the center. They are absolutely gorgeous either way.

It's Cuetlaxochitl Day. These beautiful American plants are more commonly known in English as poinsettias & nochebuenas in Spanish. I love their bright red & green leaves.

Our pretty Cuetlaxochitl in the dining room as there’s no real risk of the fur-darlings tangling with them in there. The peach-tangerine color is lovely and new to me. #cuetlaxochitl #toxicplant #flora #pretty #SimpleSunday

Every chance I get to rep the ancestors and talk about plants—I’m there.

FYI:
The beautiful plant people call the poinsettia has a name—Cuetlaxochitl. Some guy came and stole it from us and had his enslaved captives cultivate them in South Carolina, so of course he’s the namesake.

Remember folks, the real name of this plant is Cuetlaxochitl (kwet-la-SHO-she) in Nahuatl. It was native to the Aztec people and their land. It’s also called Noche Buena.

As we head into Christmas, don’t forget the origin of this iconic plant. Its real name is #Cuetlaxochitl (Kewt-la-SHOH-shee) in Nahuatl and is original to the Aztec people. It’s also called Noche Buena. Joel Poinsett, First U.S. Minister to Mexico, did not discover, let alone invent this plant.
