Poinsettias originate from Mexico and Central America. There scientific name is Euphorbia Pulcherrima but are commonly know as poinsettas. They came to the United States in 1825, and were introduced by a Joel Roberts Poinsett who was the United States Minister to Mexico.
Guatemala and Mexico are the countries where poinsettias are grown. The plants in question (Euphorbia pulcherrima) grow natively in the two above-mentioned countries (as well as possible Costa Rica and Nicaragua) and naturalize to countries in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Europe (either as an indoor or outdoor plant).

Red Poinsettias bloom in the cool, dark times of the year, when nights are long. Poinsettias require darkness and dryness to grow, as sunlight and excess water can damage the plants.
Poinsettias are called flores de nochebuena because they are flowers that are beautiful at night.
