According to the 2013 USDA Floriculture Statistics report, poinsettias accounted for about one-quarter (23 percent) of all flowering potted plant sales that year. Roughly 34 million poinsettia plants are sold in a given season. Indigenous to Central America, the plant was introduced to North America in the 1820s when Joel Roberts Poinsett, the first United States Minister to Mexico, brought the red-and-green plant back with him from a trip abroad.

| OEVA | Value: what is it, how does it apply to the Old Englewood Village and who is responsible for it? A quick Webster’s search found a version of value defined as: “the regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something.” That was interesting, it had lots of strong words like regard and deserve, but it did not answer the deeper questions. This leads me to my second search: Social Value. Paraphrasing one lengthy definition that I found at www.socialvalueportal.com, social value is broadly described as organizations or businesses, which make a conscious effort to ensure that their efforts are positive and add social value by contributing to the long-term wellbeing and resilience of individuals, communities and society in general.
