The red “petals” that we think of as the flower are actually modified leaves called bracts. A potted poinsettia was used as art reference.While considered by the ancient Aztecs to be a symbol of purity, the poinsettia today symbolizes good cheer. The gift of a poinsettia is said to bring with it wishes of laughter and celebration.Found on everything from wrapping paper to holiday jewelry, the poinsettia says “Christmas” more than any other flower. The stamp art's vibrant red—America's favorite poinsettia color—adds a decorative and celebratory note to cards and letters during the holidays.William Low painted the stamp art. Ethel Kessler was the art director.Poinsettia is being issued as a Forever stamp. Forever stamps are always equal in value to the current First-Class Mail one-ounce rate.Made in the USA.
