What the Candy Cane and Poinsettia Arrangement Shows
The striped candy cane anchors the seasonal composition, with poinsettias gathered closely around its curved form. Spruce sprigs extend through the arrangement alongside bows and hanging ornaments, while stars complete the Christmas theme. Floral shapes, needle-like foliage, ribbons, and polished decorations offer contrasting forms within one unified display.
Interesting Facts About Poinsettias and Holiday Greenery
The bright red parts of a poinsettia are modified leaves called bracts, while its true flowers are the small structures clustered in the center. Poinsettias respond to long periods of darkness by developing their familiar seasonal color. Spruce trees keep their needles through winter, which is one reason evergreen branches have long been used in cold-season decorations.
