Definitions
- Nui is very similar to Puru in many respects; however, fundamental physical and physiological differences set them apart as two distinct cultivars. These differences include stem, blossom and fruit characteristics (see detailed descriptions), as well as agronomic differences. For example, Puru typically produces pubescent yellow-green stems while those produced by Nui are completely smooth. Puru produces white, elongated (cylindraceous) flowers with a faint pink blush, while Nui has more rounded flowers (urceolate) and a more pronounced pink blush.
- Tables 1-5 Differences between Nui and the five standard varieties -- Earliblue, Collins, Stanley, Bluecrop and Darrow -- are numerous and therefore are outlined in Tables 1-5. Tables 1 and 5 summarise the main points of similarities and differences while Tables 2-4 summarise agronomic details.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate the seasonal nature of fruit production and associated yields in relation to other cultivars, while FIGS. 3-6 provide visual support for the nature of physical differences.
- Flowering habit Predominantly white with a medium to strong pink blush, accompanied by darker pink stripes. Flowering takes place during the first or second week of September which is early to mid-season in the Southern Hemisphere and after leaf appearance. Flowers have a more rounded (urceolate) appearance unlike Puru or Reka which are more cylindraceous. The average corolla length is 8 mm.
- Cluster Small, mainly terminal drooping clusters of 4-10 flowers.
- Leaves Deciduous and advanced before flowering. Average length being 84 mm and average width being 57 mm. Leaves slightly pale green and smooth with no accompanying pubescence. Predominantly ovate.
- Stems Smooth stems (glabrous) which are generally light green/yellow when young and turn yellow/light red with age.
- Fruit Large pale blue fruit produced with a small dry scar, average diameter being 16 mm and average weight 2.1 g. Can exceed fruit size of Puru. Excellent flavour. Calyx partially lobed, loose clustered, medium aroma and low resistance to cracking. Fruit production is early in the season namely late November to early January and mid March to April in the Southern Hemisphere.
- Propagation Moderately successful (i.e., easier to propagate than Puru).
