Origin & Breeding History: 'PEHY0056' originated from a controlled cross between the female parent, a proprietary breeding line designated 'P0266V', and the male parent, a proprietary breeding line designated 'BB2036-1V', conducted in Enkhuizen, the Netherlands in October 2016. The new variety 'PEHY0056' was finally selected in May 2017 based on plant habit, time of flowering, flower colour and size.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'PEHY0056' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination application number 2021/1882, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office in Angers, France. The trials were conducted by the Bundessortenamt in Hannover, Germany in 2022. All colour determinations were made using the 2015 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
