Planting Instructions: These bare-root blueberry plants require careful attention upon arrival. Ensure the roots are moist; if dry, lightly sprinkle them with water. Blueberries need acidic soil rich in organic matter and excellent drainage. While they need consistent moisture, avoid waterlogging. A sunny location is crucial for optimal fruit production. Consider planting multiple cultivars nearby to encourage cross-pollination and larger berries. This extends your harvest season with varying ripening times.
Three types of blueberries thrive in many regions: Highbush, Half-high, and Lowbush. Planting multiple cultivars within 5 feet of each other is recommended. Even though blueberry cultivars are self-fertile, cross-pollination yields larger berries. Different cultivars ripen at different times, allowing you to extend the harvest season by planting a selection of varieties. Enjoy the benefits of fresh, homegrown blueberries with these easy-to-grow plants. Our Northblue blueberry plant is a great option!
