Variety description

10 August 2026

The bush is vigorous, upright, slightly spreading, reaching 150 cm in height and 130 cm in width. The variety is very late; berry ripening occurs a few days after the Elliott variety, and depending on the region, harvesting lasts from August to September.

Berries are large, 1.4–1.8 cm in diameter, firm, with a sweet and sour taste, dry picking, and a neat scar. The variety has high winter hardiness down to -34°C and resistance to anthracnose, moniliosis, and some types of fungal stem diseases, but is sensitive to septoria leaf spot.

The variety is for universal use, suitable for fresh market, freezing, and processing. Cross-pollination with other blueberry varieties is recommended to ensure a high-quality yield.
