Grow the fantastic mid to late-season variety, Blueberry ‘Powder Blue’, and enjoy a plentiful supply of fresh, nutritious blueberries right from your garden. Ideal for extending your harvest season, it pairs beautifully with early-season varieties, allowing you to enjoy blueberries throughout the summer. This easy-to-care-for, low-maintenance shrub produces abundant, firm, and juicy berries, and in autumn, its foliage transforms into vibrant red and orange hues, adding seasonal colour to your landscape. Thriving in acid beds or containers with ericaceous compost, it’s an excellent choice whether your soil is acidic or not. The flavour of these freshly-picked berries is far superior to store-bought, and they’re packed with healthy vitamins. Enjoy them straight from the bush, or use any excess to bake delicious muffins, jams, or pies. As ‘Powder Blue’ isn’t reliably self-fertile, it’s best to grow it alongside other blueberry varieties for optimal pollination. Height: 2.5m (8’). Spread: 2.5m (8’).Blueberries require a well drained, acid soil in a sunny or semi shaded position. In areas where acid soil does not naturally occur, grow blueberry plants in patio containers using a mix of ericaceous compost and John Innes No. 3.
