Hollystar Red

Breeder:
Beekenkamp
Summary:
This variety has distinctive dark red, slightly contorted bracts, which are held a bit upright. Most notable and attractive are the red cyathia in the center that caught the attention of a number of growers at the open houses. The leaves have a gray green blaze down the center of the dark leaves. Plants flowered late season. This compact cultivar would be best grown in small pots up to 6 ½-in. pots, for the latter provide one to two more weeks of long days.
