Pink Lemonade Blueberry Plant – A Garden Delight

The Pink Lemonade Blueberry (Vaccinium Rabbiteye) is a unique and beautiful addition to any garden. This deciduous shrub offers year-round interest, starting with pinkish-white, bell-shaped flowers in late spring. These blooms give way to pale green fruit that ripens to a distinctive dark pink in early to mid-summer. The glossy, firm berries have a mild, sweet flavor, making them a delightful treat straight from the garden. In the fall, the foliage turns a vibrant orange before dropping, providing a final burst of color.

This compact variety is well-suited to various climates, requiring only 200 chill hours. This makes it an excellent choice for gardeners in milder regions. The Pink Lemonade Blueberry is not only beautiful but also beneficial. The berries are a good source of antioxidants and vitamins. Plus, the plant is considered child and pet safe, offering peace of mind for families.

Cultivation Tips: For optimal growth, plant your Pink Lemonade Blueberry in full sun and well-draining soil. Regular watering is essential, especially during hot weather.
