“It seems like everything sleeps in winter, but it’s really a time of renewal and reflection.” – Elizabeth Camden
What is the Birth Flower for December?
December’s birth flowers are the holly and narcissus. Holly is an ideal birth plant for December since it’s such a popular piece of holiday decor. Often found in a wreath, it’s symbolic of defense and protection. The narcissus signifies wealth, good wishes, and hope.
Botanical Background of the Holly and Narcissus
The Holly: Holly, from the genus Ilex, is a type of flowering plant that is native to southwest Asia, northwest Africa, and southern and western Europe. This tree or shrub is commonly found in forests of oak and beech hedges. It is a pioneer species that can adapt to different conditions and quickly repopulate.
The Narcissus: Narcissus is mainly a spring-flowering plant of the amaryllis family. These plants have conspicuous white and yellow flowers with a cup or trumpet-shaped corona. Common varieties include daffodil and jonquil.
