Description
Developed for colder climates, Darrow Blueberry produces large, juicy berries from mid to late summer, perfect for fresh eating or baking. Its spring display of white bell-shaped flowers with pink hues emerges from striking red buds, adding visual appeal. The lush green foliage transitions to a brilliant red in fall, making it a standout in any landscape.
Blueberries are a rewarding addition to Massachusetts gardens, offering both beauty and a reliable fruit harvest. They thrive in acidic, well-drained soil and benefit from a thick layer of mulch and peat moss. Darrow Blueberry’s compact, bushy habit makes it easy to grow, while its abundant late-season berries provide a delicious treat.
Each plant comes in a #2 (2 gallon) growers container. The image shown represents an example of what you may receive. Please note that the height, shape, and fullness of each plant may vary due to natural growth patterns. Rest assured, we will select the healthiest and most vibrant plant for you.
