Delite (RE)

Delite is a Rabbiteye blueberry variety — a late-season producer that extends the fresh blueberry harvest later into the season. Often recommended for home gardeners wanting a longer blueberry harvest window when planted alongside earlier varieties. Rabbiteye varieties need lower winter chill than Northern Highbush types, making them better suited to warmer NZ regions. Self-fertile but crops more heavily with another Rabbiteye variety nearby. Available at Wairere Nursery.
