From which country and which time period did poinsettias spread worldwide?

But in the 19th century Joel Roberts Poinsett (March 2, 1774 - December 12, 1851) changed all that during the course of his diplomatic career as Special Envoy of 1822-1823 and as first U.S. Minister of 1825-1830 in Mexico. Poinsett became the first person known to introduce poinsettias north of the U.S.-Mexico border.In the 20th century, the Ecke family of Magdeburg, Germany immigrated to the U.S. They settled in the area of Hollywood, California and started up a successful cut-flower business. They decided to specialize in growing, promoting and selling poinsettias. From their California ranch poinsettias became known and were sold worldwide in the 20th century.
