Common Name: Bluejay Blueberry
Bluejay Blueberry produces firm berries in the middle of the blueberry season. The fruit is suitable for fresh use, freezing, baking, and preserves.
White, bell-shaped spring flowers attract pollinators, while autumn foliage extends its ornamental interest. Its tall growth can form part of an edible hedge or a mixed fruit border.
Provide sun and acidic, well-drained soil. Another midseason variety can improve fruit set.
