Annual Poinsettia Fundraiser for 2023

Poinsettias

Together with the help of D.S. Cole Growers, a local grower with greenhouses in Loudon, NH, the American Legion is able to offer Poinsettias in 2 different pot diameter sizes: 6 ½” (1 plant per pot) and 8” (3 plants per pot) and in 3 different colors per size (Red, White, and Pink) this year.  Also being offered this year are additional specialty Poinsettias: 

  • "Starry Night" - White dyed blue and dusted with silver glitter,
  • “Sugar Cookie” - this is a white poinsettia with white iridescent glitter,
  • “Rudolph” - red with fine red glitter dusted on top, and 
  • “Spirit of Christmas” - a rich red poinsettia sparkles with gold glitter.

The prices range from as low as $14 to the highest being $32.  All of the Poinsettias are grown in glass greenhouses and pinched in order to create a much fuller plant.  Each plant includes a pot cover for added decoration and to protect from water leakage.  They are packed in a protective sleeve for easy transportation and to avoid damage to the plant.      

It is hoped that the Legion family and/or anyone who would like to participate in the fundraiser will print the attached order form and buy or sell as many Poinsettias as they can to their family, friends, teachers, co-workers, etc. They will also once again be sold during the Veterans Day Breakfast in November.    

All completed order forms should be returned by Monday, November 13th, or you can call ((617) 842-4957) or email John with your order. All plants will be ready for pick up at the post on Friday night, December 1st between 4-6 and Saturday, December 2nd between 10am - 1pm.
