- Perfect for eating fresh from the bush, or for making jams and pies.
- Species: Blueberry
- Flowering Time: April, May
- Harvest Time: August
- Sunlight: Full sun
- Ideal for: Beds, borders, and pots
- Habit: Bushy
- Soil: Light, free-draining acidic soils
- Hardiness: Fully Hardy - does not require protection from frost
- Pest & Disease Resistance: High
- Taste: Rich & tangy flavour
- Fertility: Self Fertile
- Planting: Can be planted year-round.
- Watering: Water regularly in summer. Wherever possible, water your blueberry bushes with rainwater as tap water can raise the soil pH.
- Feeding: Blueberries need minimal feeding other than yearly sprinkles of organic matter in late winter. Avoid overfeeding.
- Pruning: Prune during the dormant season (November to March). Pruning is rarely needed in the first two years; just remove any crossing or misplaced branches. For established plants, prune in late February or early March so that you don't accidentally cut off fruit buds.
