Delite is an older but still highly valued variety from the University of Georgia and USDA program, introduced in 1969. It was created by crossing the Tifblue variety with selection 1-9. It is known primarily for its unique, very sweet taste.
Fruits (Quality and characteristics): The fruits are medium-sized, with a characteristic light, almost pinkish color when fully ripe. The scar is good. Their absolute dominant feature is their taste – they are extremely sweet, with low acidity, and often described as “candy-like” or with notes of other fruits. This flavor profile makes them a favorite for direct consumption.
Plant (Growing characteristics): The bush grows moderately vigorously and has a rather spreading habit. It ripens late in the season, effectively extending the harvest period. Chill requirements are moderate, around 400 to 500 hours. It is cross-pollinated and requires another late-flowering variety (e.g., Powderblue or Tifblue) for good pollination.
A unique advantage is its exceptionally sweet, dessert-like flavor and late ripening, which extends the season.
