Blueberry Bluegold (5 Litre)
Bountiful crops of Blueberries from your garden.
This self fertile blueberry is a sure fire winner for growing your own fruit. In spring clusters of waxy pink tinged buds open to reveal white papery bell shaped blooms.
The flower petals fall to reveal green blueberries which ripen to navy blue from late July onwards. You will pick handfuls of delicious medium sized fruits straight from the plant this summer.
A great looking all year round plant - in autumn its leaves turn shades of orange and yellow whilst in winter its bare stems are an attractive yellowy green.
An ideal patio plant as it requires ericaceous compost (acidic soil) which perform even better when watered with rainwater.
Blueberries are slow growing plants requiring minimal maintenance. Simply prune some of the unwanted thin twiggy growth in late winter and after its 3rd year prune out some of the older growth to promote new strong growth from the base.
Supplied as a mature 5 litre plant which is approximately 40-50cm tall
