Toro Blueberry is a high-yielding, deciduous highbush blueberry variety known for its large, firm, and sweet-flavored berries. It belongs to the section Cyanococcus within the genus Vaccinium, the same botanical group that includes cranberries, bilberries, and huckleberries. Toro is a cultivated variety of Northern Highbush blueberry, originally developed for commercial production and home gardens due to its excellent fruit quality and ornamental appeal.

Toro blueberry plants are upright and vigorous, typically growing between 1.2 to 1.8 meters (4 to 6 feet) in height. They produce large clusters of medium to large, light blue berries with a mild, sweet taste and smooth texture. The berries ripen mid-season and are ideal for fresh consumption, freezing, baking, and processing. In addition to fruit production, Toro plants offer attractive white spring flowers and vibrant red-orange foliage in autumn, making them suitable for landscaping.

Commercially, Toro is valued for its consistent yield, easy harvesting due to clustered fruiting, and strong disease resistance. Like other highbush blueberries, it requires acidic, well-drained soil and performs best in temperate climates with adequate winter chilling.
