    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Vaccinium 'Saint Cloud' is an interspecific hybrid blueberry developed by the University of Minnesota for its hardiness to zone 3(!), its mid-range size, and its delicious berries. Clusters of white, bell-shaped flowers with pink overtones emerge in late spring that produce medium sized, dark blue, firm blueberries that are sweet and crisp ripening earlier than other varieties. A beautiful shrub with an upright spreading habit and green foliage that takes on spectacular fall colour. Requires another variety such as 'Northblue', 'North Country', or 'North Sky' for cross pollination. Attracts bees and birds.
