Duke Blueberry Hedge

Huge Berries Are a Family Favorite!

  • Three seasons of interest
  • Berries up to quarter size
  • Vibrant orange and yellow fall foliage
Flowers late (in May) but produces fruit early. Taller than most at 5-7 feet. Produces a high yield of good-to-excellent flavor. Berries are medium to large, light blue color, and very firm. Its shallow, fibrous roots need regular moisture and good drainage (like most blueberries).  A 4" layer of mulch will be very beneficial. Recommended for zones 5-8. Yellow and orange fall color. Harvest early season (In Southwestern Michigan beginning approximately July 1st, earlier in warmer zones)
