Origin & Breeding History: 'MANZ0003' originated from a controlled cross conducted in the summer of 2007 in Hillscheid, Germany, between the female parent variety 'Fisrix Whit' and the male parent variety 'K04-1263-32'. The new variety was bred and developed by the breeder Birgit Hofmann, of Ruedesheim, Germany. In December 2010, the new variety 'MANZ0003' was selected as a single seedling from the resulting progeny of the above-stated cross in Gilroy, California, U.S.A. based on its plant growth habit, flower colour, flower size and foliage quality. 'MANZ0003' was first asexually reproduced by cuttings in January 2011 in Gilroy, California, U.S.A.

Tests & Trials: The comparative trial for 'MANZ0003' was conducted in a polyhouse during the summer of 2018 at BioFlora Inc. in St. Thomas, Ontario. The trial included a total of 15 plants each of the candidate and reference variety. All plants were grown from rooted cuttings and transplanted into 15 cm pots on May 25, 2018. Observations and measurements were taken from 10 plants, or parts of plants, of each variety on August 17, 2018. All colour determinations were made using the 2007 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
