Poinsettia named Topwhite

Abstract

A new poinsettia cultivar distinguished by the unique characteristic of a whiter bract as compared with the former white variety of the Annette Hegg line shown and described in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,082. Otherwise this new plant has retained the important self branching, easy rooting, low temperature blooming and medium height characteristic of the Hegg family of poinsettias.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct poinsetta cultivar, substantially as herein shown and described, characterized particularly by the whiter and cleaner color of its bracts and its retention of the advantageous physical and growing characteristics of its red parent variety.
