Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Blue Gold Blueberry is one of the sweetest tasting, easiest blueberry bushes to grow in a smaller bush size. It begins flowering in May then produces wonderful tiny sweet blueberries that are great for eating raw, baking, or enjoying a nice smoothie in the garden at the end of the day. Blue Gold Blueberry has year-round interest with blooms in May, fruit in June and July, purple and red leaves in fall, to its fantastic yellow bark in the winter. Multiple varieties are needed for best pollination. We can not ship blueberries to Georgia or Michigan at this time.

These firm, flavorful and favoritful! late-season berries appear on 4-6' shrubs which, like most blueberries, are excellent ornamentals, as well with spring flowers and bright fall color. S-PSh/M/Acid (not dry)
