Vaccinium corymbosum 'Sunshine Blue'
Blueberries are handsome upright, dense 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. 'Sunshine Blue' is a mid-season fruiting Southern highbush variety that requires 150 chill hours. This semi-dwarf, evergreen bush tolerates more soil alkalinity than most other blueberries.
Plant in slightly acidic, well-draining soil but can handle most other soil types. Water regularly during the first year to aid the plant in establishing a strong root system, frequency can be reduced once established. Prune off old, twiggy branches and fertilize with an acid fertilizer in early spring. Planting two or more bushes together(ideally different varieties) will increase each individual's overall berry yield.
