Top Tips- While tolerant of shade, blueberries crop better in the sun.- Cover plants with netting when in fruit, otherwise you'll just end up feeding the birds.- Pick over the plants several times as not all the fruit ripens at the same time.- Fruits can be left on the bush for a few more days after they turn blue for a more intense and complex flavour, when they'll also easily pull away from the cluster.- Although self fertile and able to produce a good crop on their own, blueberries yield much more heavily if planted near another one.Care Guide- Plant in well-drained, acidic soil in a sunny, sheltered spot.- If your garden soil has a pH over 5.5, your blueberry is best grown in a pot, in ericaceous soil. Keep it well-watered, preferable with rain water - dont allow the soil to dry out.- Water blueberries with rainwater if you can as tap water will gradually raise pH levels.- Feed every month with a liquid fertiliser for ericaceous (lime-hating) plants.- If growing blueberries in the garden, add plenty of organic matter such as pine needles or composted conifer clippings. Avoid farmyard manure as it will scorch the roots.- Pruning is rarely needed in the first two years. After that prune in late Feb early Mar, aiming to remove a proportion of old wood every year. Two year-old wood is the most productive.- Take out any damaged, dead, and diseased wood and prune out low branches that will lie on the ground when full of fruit.Planting Time:February - NovemberFlowering Time:March - MayFruiting Time:June - AugustAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.

A relative of the more well-known cranberry and blueberry, the lingonberry (or cowberry as it is sometimes called) produces jewel-like, tart red fruits that are popular in Scandinavia for use in jams and syrups. While closest to the cranberry in looks, lingonberries are way more productive and reliable with more robust growth that makes them a better option for growing in the UK. Lingonberry 'Miss Cherry' is an attractive, compact variety that is also very productive. With abundant sprays of pink flowers between May and July, it's evergreen too, forming a delightful groundcover plant through the whole year. Robust with good bushy growth, it's a variety that's perfect for containers as well as the fruit garden - just plant them in a sunny or semi shaded place in ericaceous soil and get ready to enjoy the harvest from late July! Supplied as an established plant in a 2L pot, ready for immediate planting.
