Those aren’t mine.
April 2007 – I planted two blueberry bushes and they are currently both covered in tiny white flowers. A good sign that I might actually get some fruit this year?
On the north-side of the raised bed is a Northland:
- old hardy, vigorous and spreading plants that are consistently very productive. Berries are medium sized and very sweet. They ripen early-midseason
On the south-side of the raised bed is a Reka:
- Plants are upright, very fast growing and extremely productive. Tolerates wetter ground than other varieties. Berries are dark blue, medium sized and firm. They ripen early.
Plant in full sun or partial shade into well-drained, preferably acidic soil. Keep moist through the growing season. Use light amounts of acidic fertilizer in the spring. Prune out old wood on established plants during the dormant season.
The funny thing is that I don’t even really like blueberries!
Yum!
Your photo of the blueberries is just splendid!
