Blueberries
- Delicious to eat fresh or frozen!
- This Sweet Fruit is the #1 Antioxidant.
In Spring (middle of May) the blueberry bush will have many white bell-like blossoms and will have ripe berries from the middle of July through August. Through the summer months the plant will have dark green wax-like foliage. In fall leaves will turn a beautiful crimson color, and during winter months the light green or reddish colored wood (depending on variety) will provide winter color.

Plant Details:
Remove Blueberry plants from shipping box immediately. Store Blueberry plants in a cool moist place and untie the bundles. Keep roots moist at all times. Do not over water.
Blueberries require an acid soil, a pH of 4.5 to 6. Blueberries also like a moist soil, but should not stand in water. The plant should be watered often in summer, when it sets fruit for the coming year.
Plant roots in a shallow hole 6” deep, 12”– 24” in diameter. Mix soil - 2/3 Canadian Peat Moss and 1/3 soil from same hole. Fill hole 3” from top with mixture. Set plant in hole and cover with rest of the mixture. Water, then mound plant up at base 4”– 6” high with remaining mixture. Plant 2’ – 4’ apart. Water often, but do not over water
Fall or Spring.
A blueberry bush is a slow grower, but will grow to a height of 6’ in ten years. It should be planted in full sun.
