Description
The deep rich red of the traditional Christmas flower, the poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima), shows beautifully against a black background. The flower does not actually have petals; it has bracts which are modified leaves with a flower cluster in the center. Red is the most common color, but poinsettia bracts can also be cream, pale green, white, or marbled. This image is also available with a border and text that reads "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year", perfect for a card. Check out my Illustrated Texts gallery to find it.

Nikolyn, I find the red in poinsettias hard to capture but this is perfect. The framing/cropping is just right. L&F
