Foliage Color Green
Foliage Fall Color Orange
Companion Plants Magnolia (Magnolia); Hydrangea (Hydrangea); Rhododendron (Rhododendron); Strawberry (Fragaria); Raspberry (Rubus); Bayberry (Myrica)
Care Instructions Provide rich, acidic, well-drained soil. Shelter from harsh afternoon sun in very hot, dry climates. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Before new growth begins, prune off twiggy growth, leaving only main stems to prevent overbearing, and feed with an acidic fertilizer.
History The blueberries fit into the acid loving Ericaceae, with a genus that includes 150 species of shrubs, most native to the Northern Hemisphere with concentrations in North America and eastern Asia. This variety is a hybrid of two native species. V. corymbosum is native from Maine to Florida and west to Louisiana. V. angustifolium is strictly a northern plant fround in mountains from the Arctic south to Minnesota and Virgina.
Lore Blueberries are the most popular native American fruit and recent breeding has extended cultivation well beyond their original range. They are among the fruits richest in antioxidants and are eaten fresh, dried, baked and in jams.
