Jersey Blueberry Plant

Jersey Blueberry available at Stargazer Perennials

An old-time favorite blueberry variety prized for its longevity, vigorous growth, and consistently high yields of sweet fruit; every garden needs at least one jersey blueberry plant. Jersey grows to 5 feet tall and 5 feet wide, with the majority of the fruit borne in clusters in the top half of the bush making picking very easy. The fruit is sweet and firm, making it ideal for fresh eating, baking, cooking, freezing, jams or jelly. Hardy to USDA gardening zones 4 - 8, even Northern garden can successfully grow Jersey. Jersey flowers late and sets fruit early. Fall color is stunning flame-orange and red.

TIP: Plant at least two blueberry plants for better pollination and calculate two plants per each person in your household. For more information on growing blueberries, visit our website. Shop for Jersey blueberry plants online.
