Origin & Breeding History: 'CBRZ0033' was bred and developed by the breeder Mitchell E. Hanes, an employee of Syngenta Flowers Inc., in Gilroy, California, USA. The new variety originated from a controlled cross conducted in February 2015 between two proprietary seedlings, the female parent designated as 'CB4132-3' and the male parent designated as 'CASB065-1'. The resulting seeds were sown in August 2015 and a unique seedling was selected on November 1, 2015 based on plant growth habit, flower colour and early flower initiation.

Tests & Trials: The comparative trial for 'CBRZ0033' was conducted in a polyhouse during the summer of 2022 at BioFlora Inc. in St. Thomas, Ontario. The trial included a total of 20 plants each of the candidate and reference varieties. All plants were grown from rooted plants transplanted into 30 cm hanging baskets on April 6, 2022. Each basket contained 4 cuttings with a total of 5 baskets per variety. Observations and measurements were taken from 10 plants, or parts of plants, of each variety on June 8, 2022. All colour determinations were made using the 2015 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
