Vaccinium ashei x corymbosum
Sunshine Blue is a compact dwarf southern highbush blueberry. Adaptable to different soils and climates, from San Diego to Seattle, from Florida to Pennsylvania. Excellent ornamental value 3′ tall. Our best plant for keeping in a large “wine barrel” type pot. Yields are 5 to 10 lbs. of fruit per bush and about 80 berries per cup. Excellent fruit and productive. Very low chill, only needs a few days of temperatures below 45 degrees F to begin growing again. So, it’s a good choice for indoor winter gardening or greenhouse. Fall color is red. Noticed in a protected outdoor walled garden in Philadelphia plant was still holding its leaves as it does on the west coast. Native. Space 4′ circle. Zones 5-10.
