Bonsall, California.

Tests and Trials: The comparative trial for ‘BBCAL26702’ was conducted in a polyhouse during the summer of 2017 at

BioFlora Inc., in St. Thomas, Ontario. It included a total of 20 plants each of the candidate and reference variety. The plants

were grown from rooted cuttings, with 4 cuttings transplanted into each of five, 26 cm hanging baskets per variety, on May 2,

2017. Unless otherwise stated, the observations and measurements were taken from 10 plants or 10 parts of plants of each

variety, on June 27, 2017. All colour determinations were made using the 2007 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour

Chart.
