Origin & Breeding History: 'KLECA05116' originated from the controlled cross pollination of the proprietary seedlings 'U 14' and 'J 55'. The cross took place in June 2002 in Stuttgart, Germany. From this cross, 7 seedlings were selected in May 2003 based on flower colour and growth habit. One seedling was designated as 'KLECA05116' in September 2004. It was evaluated for flowering time and growth habit. Outdoor performance trials were also conducted to assess rain resistance and tolerance to powdery mildew.
Tests & Trials: Trials for 'KLECA05116' were conducted during the summer of 2007, in a polyhouse, in St. Thomas, Ontario. The trial included 20 plants each of the candidate and reference varieties. All plants were grown from rooted cuttings and transplanted into 30 cm hanging baskets on May 1, 2007. Each basket contained 4 cuttings with a total of 5 baskets per variety. Observations and measurements were taken from 10 plants of each variety (except for plant height where 5 plants were measured) on June 29, 2007. All colour determinations were made using the 2001 Royal Horticultural Society (RSH) Colour Chart.
