Blueberries
for the Home Landscape
 
Blueberries are increasingly popular fruits with well-documented health benefits. Blueberry plants are also exceptionally handsome bushes worthy of planting in the home landscape. The fruit can be eaten fresh, or frozen for out-of-season use. Plants have a profusion of white blossoms in late spring, and the leaves are glossy green in summer and have outstanding red foliage in autumn.
Blueberry growing presents a challenge for most gardeners because the plants need special growing conditions, but with the correct site, prep, planting and care; you can grow your own fresh blueberries!
for a SUPER article about growing blueberries on the University of Minnesota Extension Website!
Blueberry Varieties We Recommend
The University of Minnesota fruit breeding program has released several cultivars suitable for planting in Minnesota. The following table gives the characteristics of the cultivars we carry here at Beier's Greenhouse. Planting at least two varieties is recommended, as more berries of larger size will be produced if flowers are fertilized with pollen from another variety. Bumblebees and other native insects are enthusiastic pollinators of blueberries; the more insects working the plants, the more fruit you will harvest.
| Cultivar | Chippewa | Northblue | Northcountry | Polaris | | Yield/bush | 3-8 lbs. | 3-9 lbs. | 3-5 lbs. | 3-8 lbs. | | Plant Height | 30-40" | 24-36" | 18-24" | 3--40" | | Plant Spread | 30-60" | 30-40" | 24-36" | 30-60" |
