Planting & Care

Enjoy two abundant harvests of sweet, flavourful dark blue berries, one in July and another in September.
Offers year-round interest with semi-evergreen, dark green-blue leaves that turn a stunning scarlet red in autumn.
Decorated with clusters of beautiful, bell-shaped, pink-flushed white flowers in late spring.
Awarded the RHS 'Plants for Pollinators' award, it's a magnet for bees and other beneficial insects.
Its compact, bushy habit makes it perfect for garden borders or patio containers.
A self-fertile variety, so you only need one plant to get a good crop.

Species: Blueberry
Flowering Time: March, April, May
Harvest Time: June, July, August
Flower Colour: Bell shaped, pink-flushed white flowers
Position: Full sun
Soil Type: Acidic soil
Hardiness: Fully hardy (H6 - hardy throughout the UK and requires no winter protection)
Habit: A compact, bushy and well-branched plant
Eventual Spread: 50-100cm
Self Fertile: Yes, produces good crops without a pollination partner.

Planting: Plant any time of year. Blueberries need light, free-draining acidic soil. If your soil is not acidic, plant your blueberries in a pot with ericaceous compost.
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. Afterwards, prune in late February or early March.
Pest & Disease: Generally problem-free. Protect developing fruit from birds with netting. To avoid powdery mildew, ensure good air circulation and water at the base of the plant to keep foliage dry.
