Thompson and Morgan Blueberry Bluecrop Plant Pot 9cm 6 Pack

Enjoy an abundant crop of richly flavoured blueberries every August with this superb, self-fertile, mid-season variety. Fully hardy, the compact "Bluecrop" Blueberry offers year-round appeal, showcasing elegant white flowers in spring and colourful foliage set against striking red stems in winter. Ideal for smaller gardens or large patio pots, this shrub thrives in well-drained, acidic soil and prefers a sunny or semi-shaded location.In areas lacking naturally acidic soil, cultivate your blueberry plants in containers filled with ericaceous compost mixed with John Innes No.3. Whenever possible, use rainwater for watering, as tap water's lime content can gradually reduce soil acidity. Expect your blueberries to begin fruiting from their third year onwards. Protect the developing berries from birds by covering the plants with netting.From the third year, prune the oldest stems each autumn to encourage fresh growth and maintain a healthy plant structure.
