Duke Blueberry
An early-season Northern highbush blueberry.
Growing in South Orange County
Generally high-chill compared with locally adapted Southern highbush choices. Blueberries need acidic media, typically pH 4.5–5.5, steady moisture, mulch and excellent drainage. A container or dedicated bed may be easier to maintain than native alkaline soils.
Pollination, chilling and care
Pollination needs vary by cultivar. Some are self-fruitful, while compatible bloom partners may improve crops; rabbiteye varieties generally benefit strongly from cross-pollination. Check chilling and microclimate suitability before purchase.
Reservation and installation
Choose the offered pot size, then reserve. We confirm current nursery availability, approximate height and condition before payment. Delivery, installation, irrigation and acidic media are additional.
