Poinsettias
The poinsettia quickly gained popularity because of its supposed relationship to the Star of Bethlehem. The petals of the poinsettia are said to resemble the star that led the Wise Men to baby Jesus. With the religious ties and long history — and the use of poinsettia sap to make latex — it is not surprising that the poinsettia is such a popular holiday flower.

Orchids do not have a long association with Christmas like the poinsettia. Instead, they are a unique and special flower that signals the tropics for many people. In cold climates, the holidays are a time of yearning for warm weather.
