nights of winter.

The Aztecs called poinsettias "Cuetlaxochitl." During the 14th - 16th century the sap was used to control fevers and the bracts (modified leaves) were
used to make a reddish dye.
Montezuma, the last of the Aztec kings, would have poinsettias brought into what now is Mexico City by caravans because poinsettias could not be grown
in the high altitude.
In the 17th century, Juan Balme, a botanist, noted the poinsettia plant in his writings.
