Grow Tips: Plant in a sunny location in rich, well-drained soils. Roots need constant moisture as they are shallow-rooted and can dry out easily, but still require good drainage. A layer of mulch is beneficial. Blueberries are self-fertile but larger crops can be achieved by planting with other blueberries that bloom at the same time such as ‘;Bluecrop’; or ‘;Blue Gold’;. Prune as needed in late winter beginning in the third year after planting.
