Climax Blueberry

✓ Verified

Georgia, USA

Climax is a rabbiteye blueberry released in Georgia in 1974. I was not able to find a named breeder or detailed discovery account beyond this release information. It is commonly recommended alongside Tifblue and Brightwell as a cross-pollination partner for other rabbiteye varieties.
