Red Glitter Poinsettia

Euphorbia pulcherrima ‘Red Glitter’

The Red Glitter Poinsettia brings a festive, eye-catching twist to the classic holiday favorite. Its vibrant red bracts are sprinkled with creamy-white speckles, creating a striking “glittered” effect that instantly elevates any seasonal display. Whether used as a focal point on a dining table, mantel, or entryway, this variety adds a bold and cheerful touch to your holiday décor.

This poinsettia is celebrated for its strong, upright form and abundant bracts, making it just as impressive in groupings as it is on its own. Its unique coloration offers an elevated alternative to traditional solid red varieties, pairing beautifully with gold, silver, or rustic holiday themes. With proper care, it maintains its brilliant color throughout the season, making it a long-lasting addition to your indoor winter décor.

Easy to enjoy and simple to maintain, the Red Glitter Poinsettia brings both beauty and brightness to any room. Its patterned bracts make it especially popular for gifting, decorating offices, or adding a special sparkle to holiday gatherings. This plant stands out wherever it’s placed, offering a festive charm that feels both traditional and refreshingly modern.

Care Instructions:

Light: Place in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid harsh direct sun that may scorch the bracts.
Water: Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Allow the top inch to dry slightly between waterings.
Temperature: Maintain 65–75°F indoors. Keep away from cold drafts, heaters, and sudden temperature changes.
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Mist lightly if the indoor air becomes dry during winter.
Fertilizing: Feed every 2–3 weeks during active growth (spring–summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Do not fertilize while in bloom.
Post-Holiday Care: After bracts fade, prune back by one-third and provide bright light to encourage compact, healthy regrowth.

Sizes: Unless labeled as “Single,” the plant features multiple blooms; “Single” indicates the plant produces just one bloom.

Please Note: This plant comes in its grower’s nursery pot, ready for you to place in your favorite decorative pot at home. The pot in the picture is not included.
