This deciduous shrub boasts a rounded habit and produces plump, sweet blueberries that ripen in mid-to-late season, offering a delicious treat for gardeners and wildlife alike. It thrives in USDA Zones 4-7, making it suitable for cooler climates, and prefers acidic, well-drained soils with regular moisture. With an expected height of 4-6 feet at maturity, it serves as both a fruit-producing crop and an ornamental feature in landscapes, showcasing attractive green leaves that transform to shades of red and orange in the fall. Typically hardy down to temperatures of -20 to -30°F, this variety is moderately deer-resistant and yields abundant fruit when cross-pollinated with other blueberry cultivars. Its rounded form makes it a great choice for hedges or container planting.
