Blueberry - lowbush (Vaccinium angustifolium)

$6.00

3-6" Bare Root Seedling

Lowbush blueberry is a small to medium sized native shrub that thrives in acidic soils and occurs in a wide variety of habitats across the eastern US.

Blue-green leaves turn vibrant red in the fall and work great as a low-growing shrub in your landscape.

The white bell-shaped flowers in clusters usually appear May-June and their small dark blue-purple berries are sweet and edible for humans and wildlife several weeks later.

Height: 0.5-2 ft
Soils: Acidic and relatively well-drained, but widely tolerant otherwise
Water: Moderate drought tolerance
Light: Full sun
Wildlife: Berries are relished by birds and mammals
