WE ARE AWAITING A BLUEBERRY TRIO RESTOCK.  ORDERS PLACED NOW WILL SHIP THE WEEK OF APRIL 29.

Our bareroot blueberry trio is a mix of three varieties that are well adapted for growth in California. These Southern Highbush varieties require very few chill hours, have upright bushy growth, and will fruit well in warmer climates. 

Blueberries will fruit better with multiple varieties available for cross-pollination and you will get an extended harvest due, hence this trio. The three varieties included in our trio are: Biloxi, Sharp Blue, and Rabbiteye.  See below for variety descriptions.

We highly recommend growing blueberries in 15 gallon GrowBags with an acidic organic fertilizer.

The plant showcases firm, dense foliage with striking blue-green leaves and reddish-brown stems.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Blueberries require acidic soil. Plant blueberries in 15 gallon or larger pots, with a soil mix of 75% peat moss and 25% compost, plus a handful of Dr Earth's Organic Acid Lovers Fertilizer. Keep blueberries in an area with filtered sunlight (under a tree with a sparse canopy or shadecloth). We have successfully fruited blueberries at our farm in Pomona using this method.
