Poinsettia '529' is an early flowering cultivar with dark red flower bracts. It has dark green, medium size foliage, stiff stems and a strong branching habit. Cultivar '529' has traits which differ from 'Lilo' (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,694) and make '529' a more desirable plant for commercial pot plant production. Namely, cultivar '529' is earlier flowering, shorter, stiffer stemmed, freer branching, with brighter red bracts and improved post-production keeping qualities compared to 'Lilo'. It is also less prone to "splitting".
