Full Description
Blueberries have become one of the most fashionable fruits to grow. High in vitamin C, they are great for eating fresh or for culinary purposes for quince or jam. They are perfect for deep-freezing and they retain their flavour. They produce not only delicious light blue fruits, but also attractive flowers and vivid autumn colour.
Producing reddish-green spring leaves that turn blue-green in summer and red, yellow, orange and purple in autumn. White or pink, bell-shaped flowers in drooping clusters are followed by edible, blue fruit. A multi-stemmed shrub with green, or often red, twigs and terminal clusters of small, urn-shaped white flowers.
Prune your Patio Blueberry (vaccinium corymbosum) ‘Duke’ between November & March, when the plant is dormant remove one or two of the oldest canes at the base each year. In addition cut out any low branches that will lie on the ground when laden with fruit and remove all twiggy wood on the ends of fruiting laterals.
