Southern highbush, early season
Zones 5-10 One of the most popular varieties in California because of fast growth, high yields, consistent quality. Medium to large fruit with mild, sweet flavor. Vigorous, recommended for areas of hot summers and mild winters; tolerates as little as 150 chill hours. (No.1 size bare-root)
Blueberries are delicious, exceptionally nutritious, high in bioflavanoids. Gardeners in warmer climates can enjoy growing blueberries by choosing one of the Southern Highbush varieties. These require fewer chill hours than the Northern Highbush which require over 1000 hours. Consider climate suitability, ripening season and fruit size when selecting varieties and include at least two different varieties for cross-pollination and fruiting (any two varieties will do, regardless of ripening time). Grow in acidic, well-drained soil. Cottonseed meal is an excellent fertilizer for blueberries along with good quality compost. Sold as single bare-root plants. Non-taxable.
