Abstract: A self-watering plant holder including a container constructed for holding a quantity of liquid for watering a plant. The container has an opening generally in the top of the container permitting access to the quantity of liquid contained therein, and a first coupling component. The plant holder further includes a pot constructed to hold the plant holder therein. The pot is sized for close-fitting reception in the container opening and includes a second coupling component interengageable with the first coupling component of the container for drawing the pot into tight, substantially sealing engagement with the container thereby to substantially close the opening in the container for preventing liquid in the container from escaping the container.

Abstract: Poinsettia `9-95` is a new cultivar, distinguished by unique dark pink flower bracts, strong stems and self-branching characteristics. `9-95` is a sport of the pink bracted `V-14 Hot Pink` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,497) with the same flowering response and cultural requirements. The new plant produces a very desirable branched flowering pot plant. It is resistant to epinasty after being confined to shipping containers. The post-production foliage and bract retention are good.
