Christmas is the annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, observed most commonly on December 25 as a religious and culture. We all know the story of Christmas and why we celebrated. This is the story beautiful and lovely story of poor girl Pepita.









A charming story is told of Pepita, a poor Mexican girl who had no gift to present the Christ Child at Christmas Eve Services. As Pepita walked slowly to the chapel with her cousin Pedro, her heart was filled with sadness rather than joy.

On Christmas Eve, pepita and pedro set out for church to attend the Christmas service. Along the way they picked some green plant growing along the roadside and decided to take them as their gift to the baby jesus in the manger scene. So the children gathered up the plant and took them to chuch. Some of the other children teased them because they had no better gift, but they said nothing for they knew they had given what they could.

Pepita and pedro began placing the green plant around the manger. Suddenly, green top leaves burst into blooms of brilliant red, and all who saw them were certain that they had witnessed a Christmas miracle right before their eyes. From that day on, the bright red flowers were known as the Flores de Noche Buena, or Flowers of the Holy Night, for they bloomed each year during the Christmas season.





Today, the common name for this plant is the poinsettia!
