Spotlight on Selecta's Christmas Day


Here is one of the new varieties that we are growing this year.  The poinsettia name is Christmas Day.  Christmas  Day is a Dark Red Bract plant  with large cyathias (the actual flower).  It is an energy efficient plant that has a great "V" shape, strong branches and a medium vigor.  As energy costs, as well as other input costs continue to rise, we are always looking for new plants that will allow us to grow the best plant with the least amount input cost.  This plant will allow us to keep the greenhouse a bit cooler than some of the older varieties as well, hopefully, eliminate the need for expensive growth regulators.
