Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is characterized by vigorous bush development and high growth strength. The variety is early-maturing, although flowering occurs relatively late, which reduces the risk of damage from spring frosts. Chilling requirement is 500–550 hours.

The berries of the variety are characterized by large size and good flavor qualities. The variety exhibits good resistance to diseases. To obtain a yield, cross-pollination with other rabbiteye blueberry varieties that have a matching flowering period is required.
