How Christmas Plants Can Boost Your Spirit This Holiday Season from a Landscaper in Pensacola, FL

Holiday time can bring lots of stress and seem like a strenuous time, but one thing that can create chipper times and cheer can be Christmas plants. One of the more popular Christmas plants that most people are aware of is Poinsettias. Poinsettias are a beautiful, flowering plant that is pinched in pots and set out usually during holiday times. Here are some facts about this beautiful flower as told by an interior landscaper in Pensacola, FL, Heroman Plant Services. Unlike most plants, the attraction of the poinsettia is not the flower but the leaves. The flowers are the yellow buds on the inside of the leaves, and the red parts are the leaves. There are also other options for colors of poinsettias, such as yellow, cream and white. The blue ones are not naturally blue, but they are dyed this way. 

According to the 2013 USDA Floriculture Statistics report, Poinsettias are ¼ of the entire flowering plant population that is sold. That would be over 34 million sold in a year. That’s also $144 million in plant sales a year. Poinsettias are the highest-selling potted and flowering plant. California remains the top producer of Poinsettias with over 6 million pots grown. In the wild, Poinsettias can reach 12 feet tall in length!
