The Bluegold Blueberry is a very attractive smaller northern highbush blueberry, growing only 4 feet tall and wide. It is perfect for smaller gardens, and attractive enough, with its white flowers and red fall leaves, to grow in your garden shrub beds. It carries a heavy crop of large, sweet berries in July, of a rich blue color. Its narrow ripening period means big harvests for baking, and you can simply put any extra berries into the freezer, unwashed, where they will store for months.
Grow the Bluegold Blueberry in full sun or a little partial shade. It grows well in colder zones, including zone 4. It enjoys moist, well-drained soil, and it should be grown in acidic soil, with a pH between 4.5 and 5.5. If you don’t have suitable soil, grow it in lime-free potting soil in planters or pots, which it is very suitable for because of its compact size. Pests and diseases are rare, but some protection from deer and rabbits may be needed.
