Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Chandler’Description
Known for producing one of the largest blueberries on the market. Bushy, upright deciduous shrub with creamy-white blooms give way to massive, sweet, dark blue berries. A long ripening season means you can harvest from this variety for up to six weeks! Attractive to pollinators. Beautiful red and purple fall foliage adds excellent ornamental value. Height 5-6′.
Blueberries require medium to wet, well-drained, acidic soil (4.5 – 5.5) rich in organic material. Even though highbush blueberries are self-fertile and will fruit on their own, they will produce larger and more plentiful crops with other cultivars that bloom at the same time are present to cross-pollinate.
