Christmas Flowers Poinsettias

It’s Sunday, December 06, 2009 and I’m on official travel here in Cebu City. I arrived around 10:30am this morning on board PAL Express from Cagayan de Oro City and since I lack sleep (because I had a night out with friends last night) I slept right after I checked-in at Cebu Midtown Hotel.

I woke up at around 3PM and I’m re-charged! Yippee! And it’s time for strolling at the MALL, (oh well I love malls lol…) first stop SM Cebu.

Oh look what I’ve found while wandering? Fresh Christmas Flowers, Fresh Poinsettias my entry for Today’s Flower.

Poinsettias scientifically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima, grows with a bunch of colorful bracts (special leaves) that many mistook as the flower, but its not. The flowers are the small unnoticeably yellow or white small bulb that grows in the center of the group of bracts.

So here they are red and pink poinsettias that I have photographed this afternoon.

Enjoy!
