Abstract
Poinsettia `Pepride` is a new cultivar, distinguished by dark red dentate bracts, compact growth habit and self-branching characteristics. `Pepride` is a sport of the red bracted `490` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,825) with the same flowering response and cultural requirements. The new plant produces a very desirable branched flowering plant for smaller pots and hanging baskets. It is resistant to epinasty after being confined to shipping containers. The post-production foliage and bract retention are excellent.
