Take advantage of this selection for the absolute first Blueberries to ripen in your garden! That’s right, ‘Earliblue’ will give you baskets of large, light blue, deliciously sweet Blueberries in late July kicking of your picking season with a bang! ‘Earliblue’ is extremely hardy and a little denser and shorter than most other highbush selections but its smaller stature does not diminish its fruit output. If anything, ‘Earliblue’s’ only characteristic that will cause you gardening angst is its early bloom as it will cover itself in white, fragrant, bell shaped Blueberry blossoms at least a week earlier than most other selections making it vulnerable to possible frost damage. Your protection is a must here but it will be the only extra work besides keeping the birds from making off with its copius fruit as they ripen!
