Kayla Series: The Poinsettia Superstar of Beekenkamp Plants!
MAASDIJK – The poinsettia season is in full swing, and at Beekenkamp Plants, our Kayla series is stealing the show. This poinsettia family has once again proven itself in trials and promises a bright future. With its unique characteristics and new color variations, Kayla is ready to impress growers, retailers, and consumers alike.
About Kayla
Kayla Red has been an emerging star in our assortment for several years. What makes it stand out? Its distinctive oak-shaped bracts, strong branching, and robust stems. Kayla is easy to grow, requires minimal growth regulation, and is perfect for the smallest pot size of 6 cm. These advantages apply to all colors in the series. This year, we are adding two unique pink experimental varieties and a special marble variant in the testing phase—making Kayla a complete and versatile series.
Performance in North America
On the North American market, Kayla has made a big impression. As one of our earliest varieties, it appeared in perfect show-ready form during all poinsettia trials. Its structure and full bracts without breaks ensure a premium look. The contrast between deep green foliage and vibrant red oak-shaped bracts makes Kayla a modern classic. Customers are eagerly anticipating the expansion of the Kayla family in the coming seasons.
Experience in the Netherlands
Kayla also proves its strength in the Netherlands. Thanks to the moderate climate, it grows effortlessly without extra heating—efficient and sustainable. Its strong stems, natural V-shape, and oak-shaped bracts create a full, elegant plant. Kayla branches easily, so avoid topping too low for the perfect shape. Early shelf-life tests are promising: Kayla is not only a star in the greenhouse but also in the consumer’s home.
With the introduction of new colors and varieties, Beekenkamp Plants is fully committed to innovation. Kayla is not just a star today but also for the future. Our breeders continue to focus on quality, diversity, and sustainability so that growers, retailers, and consumers can keep enjoying this beautiful poinsettia family.
