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.
Each plant comes in a #3 (3 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.
