Description
One of the earliest ripening highbush blueberries, Earliblue Blueberry produces sweet, light blue berries in early summer. Its upright growth and dense foliage make it a striking addition to gardens, complemented by charming white and pink bell-shaped flowers in spring. In fall, the glossy green leaves turn a deep scarlet, adding a splash of color to the landscape.
Blueberries are a must-have for edible gardens, providing fresh, antioxidant-rich fruit and stunning seasonal beauty. They require highly acidic, well-drained soil and thrive with mulch and peat moss to retain moisture. Earliblue Blueberry’s early harvest makes it a perfect choice for gardeners looking for the first berries of the season.
