Jelly Bean Blueberry - 1 gal

The 'Jelly Bean' Blueberry is a revolutionary dwarf variety that provides a generous harvest of large, supersweet berries—often compared to the taste of jelly beans! This plant is a fantastic choice for the everyday gardener because it's thornless and offers ornamental beauty year-round, with leaves that turn a magnificent crimson red in the fall and winter, making it perfect for containers, edging, or rock gardens.

Ideal for Zones 4 through 8, 'Jelly Bean' requires at least 6+ hours of Full Sun to produce the sweetest fruit and maximum yields. Its best feature is its truly compact, mound-like size, maturing to a tidy 2 feet tall and wide, making it an excellent "mini-hedge" or patio accent. Due to its size and typical container placement, it is highly resistant to deer and rabbits in managed garden settings. It is also self-pollinating, though planting with other dwarf varieties can slightly increase your yield!

Like all blueberries, this variety needs acidic, moisture-retentive soil. Plant it in a pot or garden bed by blending the native soil with plenty of Watters Premium Mulch. This is vital for improving structure and maintaining the required acidic pH. As you plant, thoroughly mix in Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food—a gentle, slow-release feeding that provides the balanced nutrients essential for a strong root system and the energy needed to produce those amazing, candy-sweet berries!
