Over the fall we will experiment with several different camera configurations. We would be pleased to have your comments. The National Poinsettia Cultivar Trials were established in an effort to bring a thorough body of research and information to poinsettia growers across the country. This site and the information provided within is derived from the research and trialing efforts of three universities (Purdue University, University of Florida - Gainesville, North Carolina State University), one commercial site (Homewood Nursery, NC ), and six commercial breeders (Paul Ecke Ranch, Oglevee, Ltd., Fischer USA, Selecta First Class, Dummen, Florema). Databases include:   - 2005 Trials Database - 2004 Trials Database - 2003 Trials Database - 2002 Trials Database - 2001 Trials Database - 2000 Trials Database   - 1999 Trials Database   - 1998 Trials Database   - Saleable day relative to anthesis   - Number of natural days to flowering   - Number of days from black cloth to flower - Height data               Web site developed and designed by Eric Smoczyk.
