Product Description

Hailed by nutritionists as a so-called 'super food', the humble blueberry has enjoyed a surge in popularity in recent years, and it isn't difficult to see why. Not only are blueberries celebrated for their high levels of vitamin C and antioxidants, but they also taste delicious when cooked into jams and desserts, and are highly rewarding to grow as a potted shrub. The versatile and compact Blueberry (Early Fruiting Spartan) is one of the most popular early fruiting blueberry varieties, producing white flowers during spring which develop slowly into fruits come summer before its foliage finally turns reddish-green as autumn approaches. One of our best-selling varieties, the Blueberry (Early Fruiting Spartan) is loved for its large, intensely flavoured fruits which are produced as early in the season as July. 9cm pot plants supplied.

Soil Type Acidic soil

Growing at a glance…

They will thrive with regular nitrogen feeding and like regular doses of manure. They are self-fertile, but heavy crops are achieved by cross pollination between two plants. Blueberries will need to be planted in fertile, acidic soil. Plant deep as reproduction/new growth are by underground suckers.
