Abstract

Poinsettia `Peterstar Pink` is a new cultivar, distinguished by dark pink bracts, large flowers, strong stems and self-branching characteristics. `Peterstar Pink` is a sport of the red bracted `Peterstar` (U.S. Pat. No. P.P. 8,259) with the same flowering response and cultural requirements. The new plant produces a very desirable branched flowering pot plant. The new plant is resistant to epinasty after being confined to shipping containers. The post-production foliage and bract retention is good.
