The TH-1996 variety belongs to the southern highbush blueberry group and was obtained as a result of open pollination of the Snowchaser variety. The plant has moderately vigorous growth and a bushy form.
The variety is distinguished by a very low chilling requirement of less than 100 hours at temperatures below 7.2°C, which allows it to be grown in regions with mild climates, where it can exhibit evergreen properties.
The berries of the variety are large, medium blue in color, and have a dry scar. The variety is suitable for commercial cultivation and is adapted to soils with an elevated pH level up to 6.8.
