This productive and decorative plant is considered the best early season blueberry available. Duke Blueberry will grow medium to large size berries which are produced in abundance, so heavy you may need to support the branches! They have a delicious tangy sweet flavor which is ready to harvest in late May. It is cold hardy (zones 4-7), grows 4-6′ tall, 5-6′ wide and makes a wonderful decorative hedge. Blooms a little later then other early varieties so it’s also a good pollinator with mid season varieties like Bluecrop or Berkeley.
Enjoy large, juicy, healthy blueberries from your own blueberry bush!
