Mark:

     It was released from U. Ark.  Actually my wife discovered it when we visited Clarksville in 2003 or 2004.  The breeder John Clark kept it strictly for hybridizing purposes as it possesses a complex sweet flavor which has slight peach-like characteristics.  Personally I've not been able to pick up this peach flavor, but it is complex and is the finest flavored blueberry I've ever eaten.  It also is amongst the earliest to mature (June 1-15 here in S. Indiana).

     Hope this helps.

Ka-Bluey blueberry:

Has anyone tried this blueberry sold by the Gurneys/Henry Fields
conglomerate?  I'm wondering if it's just a common cultivar they slapped a
fancy name on.  However, I see that its got Ed Fackler's endorsement as the
best blueberry he's ever tasted.
