Origin & Breeding History: 'Fisnovired' was developed at Hillscheid, Germany in the summer of 1999 from the controlled cross of the female parent, seedling no. 265 and the male parent, seedling no. 2299. Seed resulting from this cross were germinated in early spring 2000, and flowering seedlings were selected in December 2000. In spring 2001, cuttings from original seedling no. 9791 were grafted on 'Maren' rootstock to induce branching. Branched plants grown from cuttings of the grafted plants were examined in the fall of 2001 and 2002. Selection criteria included improved plant growth habit and ability to cultivate the variety year round.
Tests & Trials: The detailed description is based on the UPOV Report of Technical Examination, CPVO application number 2004/1050, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office, Angers, France. The trials were conducted by the Danish Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Department of Horticulture, Aarslev, Denmark, during the summer/fall of 2005.
