Poinsettia Christmas card, with botanical names. Printed in England on a light cream, 300gsm carbon-neutral Italian paper, made from 100% recycled post-consumer waste.
Adapted from Plants with Colourful Foliage, E.J. Lowe and W. Howard (Paris 1867). Native to Mexico and known as the ‘Flower of the Holy Night’, the poinsettia was introduced to the U.S. by the first U.S. ambassador to Mexico in the 1820s. Its vibrant winter colours and star-shaped leaves soon made it a Christmas favourite.
All our greeting cards are 170mm x 120mm (approx. 5” x 7”) and blank inside, individually wrapped in a compostable wrapper made from plants, with a 100% recycled, 110gsm kraft envelope.
