ABSTRACT:
A new and distinct variety of poinsettia is characterized by a flower having generally the same characteristics as its parent, Annette Hegg Supreme (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,392) but the new variety is a brighter darker red and under normal growing conditions the bracts are between 10 percent and 40 percent wider with less open space between bracts. The new plant is 10-20 percent shorter than its parent and is more compact. The new plant blooms 3-5 days earlier than its parent. The new variety is a self branching plant. When pinched, the sprouts finish more uniformly than the parent. Leaf and bract retentions are equal to those of the parent.
