Origin & Breeding History: 'Duepowhiwon' originated from a controlled cross between two proprietary seedlings, the female parent designated EE04-000817-001, and the male parent designated EE09-002443-001 in Rheinberg, Germany in July 2013. It was bred and developed by the breeder, Arjan Koot, in Rheinberg, Germany. 'Duepowhiwon' was selected in December 2017 based on its upright plant growth habit, medium vigour, shoot strength and white bract colour. In January 2018, asexual reproduction of 'Duepowhiwon' was first conducted by terminal vegetative cuttings in Rheinberg, Germany.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'Duepowhiwon' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 2017/1471, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office in Angers, France. The trial was conducted at the Department of Food Science, University of Aarhus in Aarslev, Denmark in 2018. The colour determinations were made using the 2001 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
