A breakthrough colour when it was first introduced in the mid 1990s, it originated as a branch sport in a planting of 'Nicki' nicotianas in a British park. The material was passed to Floranova, the British plant breeders, who lead the world in nicotiana breeding, where the colour was bred first into the Domino Series, then the dwarfer Merlin Series. Crossing this material with the popular lime greens led to the development of unusual and very attractive 'Merlin Peach'.
