Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Blue Rose’ – Blueberry

Blue Rose is a productive blueberry variety with large, attractive blue berries and a sweet, mild flavour. Ripening during summer, the fruit is delicious fresh and ideal for baking, jams and desserts. Its green foliage develops warm autumn colours before the leaves fall.

Grow in a sunny to partly shaded position in well-drained, acidic soil rich in organic matter. Keep consistently moist, particularly while fruiting. Plant another compatible blueberry variety nearby to encourage cross-pollination and improve fruit production.

Approximate mature size: 1.5 m high × 1.2 m wide.
