Description
Burgundy Lowbush Blueberry is an excellent choice for those seeking both ornamental and edible value in their landscape. Its small, flavorful blue berries are perfect for pies or fresh eating, and it blooms pretty urn-shaped white flowers in spring. The distinctive burgundy new growth matures to gray-green and then turns a fiery orange-red in the fall, creating a lovely groundcover or border plant.
This blueberry thrives in highly acidic, well-drained soils and requires regular mulching for the best results. Burgundy Lowbush Blueberry’s compact size and striking fall color make it an attractive addition to any garden, especially in Massachusetts. Its low, spreading habit makes it perfect for ground cover or as a colorful accent along borders.
