Vaccinium ‘Elliot’ Blueberry Bush #2

The 'Elliott' blueberry bush (Vaccinium elliottii) is a late-season, self-pollinating, upright shrub that grows 4-6 feet tall, offering clusters of firm, medium-sized berries that ripen in August to September. It is a heat-tolerant, cold-hardy plant native to the southeastern U.S. that prefers full sun and acidic, well-draining, moist soil with high organic matter. To ensure best fruiting, plant with other late-season blueberry varieties, and protect the shallow, fibrous roots by maintaining soil moisture and applying mulch
