Origin & Breeding History: 'Fisupnic Kirmag' originated from a hybridization made in the summer of 2003, in Hillscheid, Germany between the female parent seedling 'K03-3186-1' and the male parent seedling 'K03-2428-2'. The first selection occurred in Moncarapacho, Portugal in the spring of 2004. Cuttings from the selected seedling were taken back to Hillscheid, Germany for further examination and trial cultivation in the spring through summer of 2005. 'Fisupnic Kirmag' was selected based on flower colour, flower size, flower shape, growth characteristics and plant growth habit.
