Australia - Patent on 25 Jun 2020 Application No: 2020/090 on 14 May 2020 VIEW PBR PATENTIn 2008 an unnamed seedling was selected to be the mother and an unnamed seedling was selected to be the father. The resulting seed was sown in January 2009, resulting in a number of seedlings. The best of these seedlings was then chosen for further trial and development. From this plant, in July 2009, 8 buds were taken and grafted (using the 'T'-budding method) onto Rosa Laxa rootstock outdoors. The following year, in 2010, the variety was considered good enough to be increased by grafting to 30 plants. Next year, in 2011, the increase was up to 200, and two years after that, in 2013, it was increased to 1,500. In 2015 the variety was increased by further budding to 5,000, sufficient budding for a commercial introduction in May 2016.
