The cultivar `RANMD` was discovered as a naturally occurring branch mutation in 2002 in at a commercial nursery in Beaconfield, Victoria, Australia. This mutation was isolated by vegetative propagation and grown to a mature plant for further observation of its characters over the next 9 years....
The parent variety `Valencia` is characterized by its apricot colored double flowers.

The U.S. Patent says it was "branch mutation" - i.e. sport.
Rankins website (see refs) in 2015 said it was "found as a seedling".
