`Star' Southern Highbush Blueberry [PDF]
Southern highbush blueberry cultivars are hybrids bred from a gene pool developed by crossing northern highbush cultivars (largely V. corymbosum L.) with one or more low-chill blueberry species native to the southeastern United States. Vaccinium darrowi Camp has been the most widely used source of climatic adaptation to warm areas. Vaccinium darrowi is
