2 Elliott NORTHERN HIGHBUSH  BLUEBERRY 2 YEAR OLD PLANT

The Elliot Blueberry Northern Highbush is a Vigorous and productive plants, produce berries galore late in the season.  This native American variety ripens in July, and the harvest of large, firm fruits with delicious sweet flavor goes on for weeks. Plant with at least two other blueberry varieties to ensure adequate cross-pollination. The 5-6' tall bushes become a blaze of crimson in the fall, so they are ideal arranged as an informal hedge. These vigorous plants will produce fresh blueberries for pies and preserves for many, many years. 

Blueberries require acid soil with high organic matter content. Good drainage is essential as blueberries’ shallow fibrous roots are easily starved for oxygen. However, blueberries are not tolerant of drought conditions and need to be kept moist. They will produce best in a sunny location. Three types of blueberries can be grown in Iowa (or Vermont); Highbush, Half-high and Lowbush. Plant multiple cultivars (cultivated varieties) within 5 feet of each other. Even though blueberry cultivars are self fertile, cross-pollination produces larger berries. Cultivars ripen at different times so you can lengthen the harvest season by planting a selection.
