DESCRIPTION

Delicious edible blueberries specially designed to thrive in areas with mild winters. Before these Southern highbush varieties were introduced around 2010, blueberries only thrived in areas with particular chill requirements.

All selections are excellent for freezing, jams, baking and eating fresh. O'Neals are especially plump and juicy, while Sunshine is especially rich and sweet. Sharpblue and Southmoon being both sweet and juicy, but less plump than O'Neal.

With attractive foliage and generous growth habit reaching up to 6'-8' in height, these upstarts a must have for a California edible or pollinator garden. Delivered in a plastic container smaller than a 1 gallon size, and about 8x larger than a 4" pot.
