RE: When Christmas Comes Calling

in Silver Bloggers2 years ago

We no longer put up the tree as we did when children were young, the pointsettia appears to be gifted to me each year, alas mine never make more than three months... For some reason this is a Christmas bloom only.

Dinner and planning already at full steam, being able to join with family when everyone briefly forgets the world around and makes a day of memories together.

Have a wonderful time in preparation the tree is now back in it's spot in your home I see!

Now that you say that, the poinsettias are usually gifted! I bought four more to give out this week, so they can enjoy them over the season. My mom always received at least 6 of them every year. For some reason, New England carried more of the poinsettia gift-giving than most places I have lived. I have a love/hate relationship as they never seem to flower again. There is a certain protocol that I have never been able to manage. It is a secret that I have never been able to uncover! LOL

They are native to Southern Mexico and they call them Flor de la Noche Buena, (Flower of the Holy Night) because of their resemblance to the Star of Bethlehem. It is not so much a Christmas flower, but this is the time when they have their color. They can be planted in the garden and will grow all year round, quite prolifically, I might add.

What you say is quite true. Christmas and its magic allow one to briefly forget the world and make a beautiful day of it. That picture is last year's tree, making out way towards this year. Thank you for stopping in! Have an amazing day! 💜

One flower with interesting story, did not know this symbolism. Gifting, always thought my sister-in-law gets a tickle out of mine always dying off. Needless to say hers thrive and are in full colour as an indoor house plant, she tends to it along with orchids, neither I mess around with !LOLZ

I'm sure the tree must be up by now with the fairy or star on top, you normally right on time with decorations.

PS: This is how I know it's that time of year again, start stocking up for a good Christmas dinner. 🙃

Yes. the trees are up already! We are working on the last one. Everyone needs a sister-in-law who is amazing. :) Actually, mine is too, but, she doesn't make me live in her shadow. :) She is kind like that. :)

No doubt in my mind the trees are up and you are rejoicing within the realms of your favourite season.
