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.

All our stock if “lifted” to order, which means that they are “lifted” and packed the same day and sent off so delivery is made the following day hence you receive them as fresh as possible. They are well packed and they are able to stay in the bags they arrive in for up to 7/10 days out of any frosts but it is advisable to plant bareroot trees as soon as possible. We are able to give you a suitable delivery date after the order has been placed when we email your order of acknowledgement to you. Unlike other nurseries who usually say within 3-5 days we can give you a definite day.

As soon as we receive your order we can usually send these out within the week. We use a courier and a signature will be required UNLESS you inform us (in the comments box) of where you would like your goods left safely should you not be at home. It is possible to select a day (apart from week-ends and Fridays) when ordering.
