Princettia® Poinsettias
This year we’re offering a new, unique alternative to the traditional red poinsettia—the Princettia® series. As you can see, these hybrids come in vibrant—and in some cases electric—shades of pink. In addition, Princettia® lays claim to the only true white poinsettia on the market, with none of the typical yellowing we’re accustomed to on standard white varieties.
Naturally compact, Princettias® produce an abundance of colorful bracts with no pinching required. We like them for this reason—they look bushier when compared to traditional poinsettias. Notice how dense they are—all those branches and bracts add up to an overall lush, full appearance.
Expect these plants to reach 6–12 inches tall with a similar spread. Princettias® have a long shelf life; place them in a warm, moderately sunny spot—but not in direct sunlight—to keep them looking prime.
Because of their compact nature, Princettias® look neat and attractive in tabletop and desktop displays. Bright or subdued, the pinks blend easily into combination planters and the clean white adds a touch of winter elegance. These plants make great gifts.
We grow the following Princettia® selections in the 5.5-inch pot: Dark Pink, Hot Pink, Pink, and White.
