Origin & Breeding History: 'HPOPR018' originated from an open pollination of an unnamed proprietary seedling (female) with pollen from an unknown seedling (male) by the breeder Wouter Marques at Oprins Plant N.V. in Rijkevorsel, Belgium in August 2012. From the resulting progeny, 'HPOPR018' was selected as a single plant in August 2015 in Rijkevorsel, Belgium based on its compact plant growth habit, early blooming and compact flower panicles with distinctly visible fertile flowers. 'HPOPR018' was first asexually propagated by softwood cuttings in September 2015 in Rijkevorsel, Belgium.
Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'HPOPR018' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 20172687, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office in Angers, France. The trials were conducted by Groupe d'Étude et de Contrôle des Variétés et des Semences in Brion, France between February 15, 2018 and December 15, 2019. Colour determinations were made using the 2015 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
