P0|NSETT TIA Is 4
CHRISTMAS FLOWER
BEAUTIFUL PLANT WHICH IS so
Tricky GROWN HERE is
HIGHLY COMPLIMENTED.

Pensacola ladies who are fortunate
to own and grow the beautiful poin-
settias, SO numerous in Pensacola,
will rejoice to learn that it has been
named the Christmas flower, and will
read with interest the following trib-
ute to the plant from the Industrial
Index, Of Columbus, Ca:
In Florida-that land Of resources
and delights-that poinsettias are
growing and blooming with unusual
luxuriance. This seems highly ap-
propriate.
The poinsettia, is the Christmas
flower, and one of striking brilliance
Of color and almost startling beauty.
Even in semi-tropical regions, where
frost does but little injury to vege-
tation, there comes the time when
flowers, though unharmed by cold,
cannot have all the freshness and
vigor of the vernal season. It is then
that the poinsettia rears its starry red
crown upon a lengthy stem that
makes it tower gracefully above the
most of its fellows Of the flower gar
den. It's colors are vivid but not
blatant, and its freshness and the
season Of its vigorous blooming make
it wonderfully beautiful. The lover
Of flowers especially If he is from
q cold climate-who sees the poinset-
tia for the first time finds it hard to
realiez that he Is not looking upon q
miracle Of the floral kingdom, and he
never ceases to remember and admire
|it.
And how appropriate that this
flower which comes to welcome Christ
mas should bloom this year with un-
usual magnifcence in this country'i
great winter flower garden. Christ.
mas will come to this country as q
season Of peace and prosperity and
good will to men and Of life and hope
while across the Atlantic it will be 9
season of war and want and hatred
and of death and despair.
