Vaccinium X Sunshine Blue Southern Highbush Blueberry

Vaccinium X Sunshine Blue Southern Highbush Blueberry is a deciduous shrub with a rounded, shrubby growth habit. Sunshine Blue bears a smaller crop of blueberries, as it was bred to be an ornamental plant. Very useful as hedging or foundation plants in areas of high acidic soils such as rhododendrons. In spring, small clusters of pink and white flower give way to blueberries. The small, oval, blue-green leaves turn red, yellow, orange, and purple in the fall. The Sunshine Blue Southern Highbush Blueberry is a perfect choice for borders and hedging. Highbush Blueberry grows best in moisture-retentive, acidic, organic soils under full sun to partial shade with a good mulch. Developed for hot and humid summers.
