Blueberry

Vaccinium corymbosum 'Earliblue'

Highbush Blueberries are ideal native shrubs to include in the landscape. Plants are hardy and long-lived, asking only for a sunny spot with highly organic, acid soil, so dig in some peat moss when planting, if you're in doubt, and mulch to retain moisture.


Plant in moist, humus-rich, acidic soil in full sun. An early-season bearer of medium-large, delicious fruit.
