Origin & Breeding History: 'Kirine-34' originated from a controlled cross made in February 2005 in Tochigi, Japan. The female or seed parent was designated as 'Aromatica Compact White' and the male or pollen parent was 'Sundrop Yellow'. The new Nemesia variety was selected from the resultant progeny as a single plant in October 2005 based on criteria for earliness, plant form, branching, flower habit, size and colour, sterility and weather tolerance. Asexual reproduction by vegetative cuttings was first conducted in November 2005 in Tochigi, Japan.

Tests & Trials: The PBR trials were conducted in a polyhouse during the spring of 2007 in St. Thomas, Ontario. The trials included a total of 15 plants of the candidate variety and reference variety. All plants were grown from rooted cuttings and transplanted into 10.5 cm pots on March 20, 2007. Observations and measurements were taken from 10 plants of each variety on May 15, 2007. All colour measurements were made using the 2001 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) colour chart.
