Abstract

Poinsettia `PJ 3219` is a new cultivar, distinguished by smooth red bracts, large flowers, strong stems and self-branching characteristics. `PH 3219` is a sport of the red bracted `Supjibi` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6592) 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 and recovers rapidly if the plant does become epinastic. The post-production foliage and bract retention is good.
