Vaccinium corymbosum Elliot (Blueberry)

'Elliot' will keep you picking late into the season, extending your supply of fresh berries well into August and September. When the harvest is in, this vigorous, upright native plant puts on a fiery show of fall foliage color. Blueberries like a slightly acidic soil in full sun and produce fruit on new growth, prune out a third of old growth in early spring. For best fruit set, plant more than one variety. An Easter U.S. Native. Hardy to Zone 4. Height/Spread. 6' x 4'.
