Poinsettia ‘Christmas Feelings’
I’m not much for talking about my feelings but today I’ll make an exception.
For a traditional poinsettia look—with large pointed bracts in pure, brilliant colors—we grow the Christmas Feelings series in red and pink. Plants are compact and extremely uniform—two important qualities when planning holiday displays. The vivid bracts stand out against bushy dark green foliage and retain their leaf color throughout and beyond the holiday season.
These poinsettias are durable and transport well, plus they have an extended shelf life. Plants bloom mid-season and hold their leaves until late winter when kept in the appropriate conditions: full to partial sun, 60–70°F temperatures, away from drafts, and watered moderately.
‘Christmas Feelings Red’ is a classic bright red poinsettia. Branches are sturdy and upright, making it easier to apply a sleeve to the plant at retail. This is one of the best selling red poinsettias on the market—and our favorite.
‘Christmas Feelings Pink’ is one of the most uniform pink poinsettias available. Unlike other pink varieties that have dark green foliage, its bracts stay true to their color and do not take on a grayish tinge as they age.
Plants reach 10–14 inches tall and can be placed in a sunny window once they bloom. Find a spot where they’ll get natural sunlight; that way they’ll experience shorter days and long, cool nights that will help them re-bloom for you.
‘Christmas Feelings Red’ is available in the 4.5-inch round pot.
‘Christmas Feelings Pink’ comes in the round pot in the following sizes: 4.5-inch, 6.5-inch, 7.5-inch, and 8.5-inch.
