Plant in a sheltered position with sun or part shade, with well drained but moisture retentive, acidic soil (pH 4.5-5.5). It is essential that the soil does not dry out in the summer or become waterlogged in the winter. Bushes should be planted 1.5-2m apart in all directions to allow the plants the space they need to thrive. Spread a thick layer of ericaceous mulch, such as pine bark over the soil, leaving a gap around the base of the stem. Our potted blueberries can also be planted in containers, these should be large, at least (40-50cm) and half filled with ericaceous compost. We recommend that you plant two different varieties to ensure cross-pollination. A single blueberry bush will produce fruit, but the yields will be higher and the fruits bigger if more than one is grown.
Potted bushes are available from our nursery all year round. The prices listed are for quantities per hundred, if you wish to place a smaller order please get in contact with a member of the team.
