Abstract
Poinsettia `Snowcap` is a new cultivar, distinguished by creamy white flower bracts, medium dark green foliage, self-branching characteristics, and 9-week flowering response time. The flower bract color is whiter than most poinsettias in commerce. The new plant produces a very desirable branched flowering pot plant for the holiday season market. `Snowcap` is resistant to epinasty after being confined to shipping containers. The post-production foliage and bract retention is excellent even under low light intensities in the consumer's home.
