Origin & Breeding History: 'CIDZ0114' was discovered as a naturally occurring branch mutation of the parent variety CIDZ0101' (Flagstaff Topaz) in Gilroy, California, USA in July of 2018. It was selected based on its flower type, colour and canopy; as well as its flowering response time.
Tests & Trials: The comparative trial for CIDZ0114' was conducted in a greenhouse in St. Catharine's, Ontario in the summer of 2025. Fifty unrooted cuttings were planted into 15 cm pots, with 5 cuttings per pot, 10 pots per variety on June 30, 2025. Plants were pinched on July 14, 2025 prior to short day treatment. Plants were spaced 30 cm apart on July 21, 2025. Observations and measurements were taken from 10 plants, or parts of plants, of each variety on September 10, 2025. Mean differences were significant at the 5% confidence probability level based on a paired Student's t-test. Colour determinations were made using the 2015 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) colour chart.
