Origin & Breeding History: 'KLEFU14840' was bred and developed by the breeder, Andrea Dohm, in Stuttgart, Germany. It originated from a controlled cross conducted in Stuttgart, Germany in October 2011 between '2010.15', as the female parent, and '2010.7', as the male parent. The resulting seedlings were selected in September 2012 based on upright growth habit, compact plant growth, branching characteristics, flower abundance and flower colour. The selected seedlings were then evaluated in greenhouse trials from December to April in 2013 and 2014 and from December to March in 2015. A single seedling was selected for commercialization and named 'KLEFU14840' in May 2015, in Stuttgart, Germany.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'KLEFU14840' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 2015/1635, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office, in Angers, France. The trial was conducted in 2016 by the Bundessortenamt, in Hannover, Germany. The colour determinations were made using the 2007 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
