Origin & Breeding History: 'Jong 01' originated from a cross pollination that occurred August 2005, in Boskoop, the Netherlands. The cross was made between two unnamed proprietary seedlings. The new variety was selected as a single plant from the resultant progeny during the summer of 2010 based on its growth habit, branch strength, inflorescence appearance and sterile flower colour. Asexual reproduction of 'Jong 01' was first conducted in May 2011 by softwood cuttings in Boskoop, the Netherlands.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'Jong 01' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 2015/0548, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office in Angers, France. The trial was conducted by the testing station of the Groupe d'Étude et de Contrôle des Variétés et des Semences in Brion, France, from 2016 to 2017. The colour determinations were made using the 2015 Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart.
