Sunshine Blue Blueberry

Description

Small fruit varieties offer the gardener home grown taste without utilizing large areas of the landscape. Some varieties even produce fruit within the first or second season and are bountiful for many years. Many smaller varieties are great for patio gardens. Planting them in containers or around sunny outside patios allows for easy harvest and adds unique accent color to the landscape. Planting a mixture of early, mid and late season varieties will ensure you have tasty fruit to enjoy all season long. Pruning and thinning is an integral part of maintaining a healthy, productive plant.  Read pruning information below for further instruction.
