Blueberry - Sunshine Blue
Our Blueberries are already starting to produce flowers in preparation for fruiting in the warner months ahead. A evergreen shrub that grows up to 1.5m bearing mid-sized fruit.. This semi-dwarf, versatile semi-deciduous blueberry features showy hot pink flowers that fade to white in spring, yielding large crops of delicious berries. This variety is self-fertile so another plant nearby is not required, making it perfect for smaller gardens. Blueberry Sunshine Blue is frost tolerant and will reliably produce fruit making it well suited to all parts of Australia.
Blueberries require constant moisture for maximum productivity. They are actually quite drought tolerant, though in dry situations they will produce less and grow more slowly.
They love a full sun position with some shade protection in the afternoons.
EXPERT TIP - Ideal for growing in pots. As it needs an acidic soil, use an Azalea and Camellia fertiliser when feeding to keep the soil at the right pH. Use a good quality compost like Pure Magic if planting in ground.
