Origin & Breeding History: 'PEQZ0037' originated from a controlled cross conducted by the breeder, Ronald Snijder, in Enkhuizen, the Netherlands in February 2013. The cross was made between the female parent, a proprietary seedling designated as '10972-2', and the male parent, a proprietary seedling designated as 'PEZ-AY0450-04'. The resultant seed was sown in January 2014. A single unique seedling was selected in June 2014 based on plant growth habit, branching characteristics, flower colour, flower appearance and tolerance to heat and drought.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'PEQZ0037' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number PEL 2786, purchased from the Bundessortenamt, Hannover, Germany where the trials were conducted in 2019. Colour determinations were made using the 2015 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
