Christmas Rose  Ino Schaller Santa - Antik Baubles Exclusive

The poinsettia's origins can be traced back to 1834 when German scientist Johann Friedrich Klotzsch identified it as a new species. Klotzsch attributed the species name "pulcherrima" to Carl Ludwig Willdenow. While they may not share a physical resemblance, the poinsettia's German equivalent is the "Christmas rose" (Helleborus niger). Known as Christrose, Schneerose, or Weihnachtsrose in German, this central European plant blooms during the winter months from December to March.
