Blueberry, Sweetheart

Early and large yields of delicious berries plus the possibility of a second crop. The result of a cross between Southern and Northern Highbush varieties. 'Sweetheart' bears a large crop of light, powdery blue berries early in the blueberry season and when conditions are favorable, a second crop in late summer. The fruits are delightfully sweet and firm - ideal for both fresh eating and baking. Vigorous bushes grow 5 to 6 feet tall and yield up to 15 pounds of fruit per plant.

Although blueberries are somewhat self-fruitful, fruit set will be greater when more than one variety is planted.
