Blueberry Sunshine Blue

A compact sized blueberry prized for tolerating a low pH - (less acid conditions compared to other varieties) and low chill requirement. Large cropping of tasty purplish fruit, starting in January / Feb and hanging until autumn. A variety tolerates low chill and in warmer areas might not not lose its leaves in winter. Blueberries in general produce a shrub with new branches suckering up from the base. The fruit are prized eaten fresh, and can be stored well frozen or cooked in pies, jams etc. Can be self fertile but yield will be better when pollinated by another variety.

NO DELIVERY TO WA as these are sent in pots with soil.

Pollination Guide

  • Pollination is far simpler than most people think. Generally, unless self fertile simply get 2 or more different varieties in the same group (eg pears) to ensure adequate pollination. A more comprehensive explanation can be found in our Pollination Guide
