Jersey Blueberry

Baker’s Favorite

(5 customer reviews)

Rich blue fruit is medium-size and very sweet—a favorite for baked goods. 6- to 8-ft. bush is a heavy, reliable producer that tolerates a wide range of soil types and displays orange flame fall foliage. One of the most widely grown varieties. Ripens in late July. Zones 3-8.
Not available in AE AK BC GU HI OR PR.

Out of Date
Reviewed By: Al Rosenberg (Warwick, Rhode Island)
This variety is out of date and should be avoided. Production is mediocre and the bush gets readily overgrown and unmanageable.

Leaves fall off
Reviewed By: Paul Rutter (State College, PA)
I have had terrible luck with this blueberry plant type. The leaves fell off half of my plants after receiving them from Gurneys, leaving stalks that aren't doing much of anything. Without leaves no photosynthesis can happen. The plants do not seem energetic or hardy-almost lifeless. I'd avoid the seedlings from Gurneys and find more mature product that is stronger with a will to live.

In love with Jersey
Reviewed By: Roberta Cegarra (Danville, NH)
I started with two blueberry bushes to see how it went. I have an Earliblue and a Jersey. My Jersey is doing phenomenal and my Earliblue is right there too. Excellent fruit and lots of it! I'm hooked...bought 9 more bushes of various varieties!
