Poinsettia Matinee Glitter
If you're a Euro expat, you'll know these festive Latin Americans as the classic Christmas indoor plant, favourite home decor for adding seasonal cosiness.
If you're true blue Aussie, you'll recognise these as the bright splashes of red and white lighting up a gloomy winter garden.
Grow them indoors as compact potted colour; grow them in your subtropical garden and they become large bold shrubs.
The Premium range is a tried-and-true longstanding favourite of poinsettia growers : Matinee Glitter sparkles with a constellation of white on deep red, dramatic and delightful. The red is strong, the plants are bushy, and the 'petals' overlap to give a starry 3D effect.
