The variety belongs to the southern highbush blueberry group and is known under the trade name First Blush. The plant has an upright bush shape with medium vigor; bush dimensions are relatively small. The variety is intended for evergreen production systems in regions with a warm climate.
The berries have a flattened shape, dark blue color, and a size of about 20 mm. The flesh is distinguished by high firmness; the taste is medium-sweet with low acidity. A small and dry scar ensures good transportability, and the fruits maintain quality during storage for up to 10 weeks at a temperature of 2°C.
The variety is commercial and intended for the sale of fresh produce. It is distinguished from other varieties by the size and shape of the leaves, the intensity of the wax bloom on the berries, and the color of the flesh.
