A deciduous fruiting shrub known for its upright growth habit and late-season berry production. In spring, clusters of small white bell-shaped flowers appear, followed by medium-sized, firm blue berries in late summer to early fall. The berries have a rich, sweet-tart flavor that is excellent for fresh eating, baking, or preserves. Glossy green foliage provides summer interest and turns vibrant shades of red and orange in fall, enhancing the garden’s ornamental appeal.
Valued for late-season harvest, flavorful fruit, and multi-season interest, it grows best in full sun and prefers moist, acidic, well-drained soil. Planting with other blueberry varieties can improve pollination and increase fruit production, making it a reliable choice for home orchards and edible landscapes.
