Abstract
Poinsettia `Silverleaf` is a new cultivar, distinguished by variegated silver/green and white foliage, pink flower bracts, compact bouquet-like growth habit and self-branching characteristics. `Silverleaf` is a naturally occurring sport of the red bracted `Peterstar` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,259) with the same flowering response and cultural requirements. The new plant produces an interesting 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.
