Duke Blueberry Plant - Early Ripening - 2.5" Pot

Duke blueberry bush is a wonderful, easy to grow early ripening northern blueberry variety. Duke blueberry is a heavy, consistent producer with an attractive, firm, light blue high quality berry. Duke blooms late but ripens early, which protects the blossoms from spring frosts. Branches may droop to the ground when laden with fruit, prompting many gardeners to use a simple trellis as support. Lovely orange and burnt-yellow fall color. When planting blueberry bushes always calculate at least 2 bushes per each family member. Cannot ship to Washington state due to USDA regulations.
