Blueberries are handsome upright, dense, deciduous shrubs with arching shoots and elliptical leaves that emerge bronze, mature to dark green, and change to yellow or red in autumn. Tiny, white, urn-shaped flowers are followed by edible, sweet blue-black berries in mid- to late-spring. Shrubs can be used for hedges or borders. 'Emerald' is a prolific producer of very large berries with a mild sweet flavor that ripen in summer. This Southern highbush variety requires 250 chill hours. Excellent for mild winters and hot summer.
How big does an Emerald Blueberry Bush grow?
The Emerald Blueberry Bush typically grows 5–6 feet tall and wide, forming a full, rounded shape with bright green foliage and heavy fruit clusters.
When does the Emerald Blueberry Bush produce fruit?
Emerald Blueberries ripen in late spring to early summer. The berries are large, firm, and sweet—perfect for eating fresh or baking.
Does the Emerald Blueberry Bush need a pollinator?
Emerald is partially self-pollinating but produces higher yields when planted near another southern highbush variety, such as Misty or Jewel.
What kind of sunlight and soil does it need?
It thrives in full sun and prefers acidic soil with a pH of 4.5–5.5. Add organic matter or peat moss to improve soil texture and acidity.
