Abstract

This new Poinsettia cultivar, designated `Peterstar`, is vigorous and self-branching, having a medium height and bright red flower bracts. `Peterstar` originated as an induced mutation of `Angelika` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,492). `Peterstar` is shorter and blooms earlier than `Angelika`, the cultivar it most closely resembles. The bracts are wider and smoother than those of `Angelika`.
