Southern Highbush Blueberry Plant

The Southern Highbush blueberry is a cross between Northern Highbush blueberries and native Southern species, giving it a greater range of adaptation than either of its parents. The Southern Highbush tolerates a wider range of soil conditions and temperature variations. The fruits are smaller than Rabbiteye blueberries but no less tasty. Southern Highbush blueberries are becoming more popular for both home and commercial plantings for the production of delicious berries before Rabbiteye blueberries start ripening. Our Southern Highbush Blueberry plants for sale are an excellent choice for Gulf Coastal States but also for people in the upper south or middle states like Virginia or Kentucky, as they are a little more cold hardy than Rabbiteye Blueberries. (The Southern Highbush Blueberry varieties we offer are O'NEAL, SHARP BLUE, MISTY, MEADOWLARK, & LEGACY.) (Zones 6B - 10A) (B refers to the lower portion of a zone and A to the upper portion.)
