A little history about what we now call the poinsettia.

By

The cuetlaxochitl flower is native to Mexico.

This is a sacred flower that was colonized and written off in history as a "discovery" of Joel Poinsett’s in the 1800's.

Joel Poinsett was a slave owner who promoted white supremacy and slavery in his travels and in his political career. He has also been responsible for the displacement of many indigenous peoples along the way by forcibly removing them from their native lands.

The Cuetlaxochime originally had nothing to do with christianity or Christmas, they were a sacred plant used in ceremonies to celebrate the birth of Huitzilopochtli during our winter solstices. They were also used for medicinal and healing purposes to cure sicknesses, aid the flow of breast milk, as well as for dyeing fabrics.

Reverse the harm by calling our xochime by its original name, Cuetlaxochitl, and correcting those around you.

Pronunciation: Kwe•tla•so•cheetl

Guess what!? Mama Pixie is coming back in all her green glory! As the flower garden season begins to come to an end we are here to make sure you will not go without flowers. Also as we begin to move out of the garden and indoors you will be delighted to see some more plants growing on the shelves too.

Yay for flower therapy! ❤️💐 This is a mock up of a floral railing I am about to do for a beach wedding. The colors will be bolder but I'm loving the look of this so much. I definitely needed this therapy. 💐❤️
