Nui is a Northern Highbush blueberry variety, released by Ruakura Research Centre in 1985. It is parented by E118 (Earliblue x Ashworth) x Bluecrop. Known to produces early crops of very large berries, most between 16-20mm in diameter. Loose clusters of light blue fruit are borne on the outside of the canopy. Early in the season, the berries tend to be quite acidic. Berries are firm with excellent keeping qualities. Slow to establish, this smallish bush has a spreading leafy growth habit and has a high requirement for organic matter. Nui produces an average crop yield with a tendency to be biennial. Suitable for all districts south of Waikato.
Recommended 1 metre plant spacing to maximise production on mineral soils.
