The San Diego History Center has a 15-foot-tall Christmas tree made from 100s of poinsettias. It's gorgeous. And, as ABC 10News Anchor Jared Aarons learned, it can also teach part of San Diego's past.
SAN DIEGO - Just in time for Balboa Park's December Nights event, the San Diego History Center debuted an enormous Christmas tree made entirely of poinsettia plants.
"You can relate it to a child, maybe seeing snowfall for the first time," she says of the looks that people have when they first see the tree."When come in, they see the height of this tree and instantly they assemble the family for a family portrait." "In 1825, the first poinsettia plant was introduced by the first U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, Joel Roberts Poinset," she explains."Then in the early 1900s, The Ecke family then began hybridizing the plant and had the innovation to turn it into a house plant."
