If you want to grow your very own blueberries, you’ll love the Blue Gold Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Bluegold’). It’s self-fertile, so you can plant it on its own, but you’ll get the best yields if you combine it with another high bush variety such as ‘Northland’ or ‘Bluecrop’. The fruits are carried in heavy clusters that are pretty to look at, but even better to pick and eat. But blueberry plants are a pleasure out of fruiting season too. The flowers are pretty, the autumn foliage is showy, and the bare, red-tinged branches add color to winter.
To grow your Blue Gold Blueberry, plant it in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water it regularly, especially during dry spells. Prune it in late winter or early spring to keep it healthy and productive. When pairing it with other varieties, make sure they are compatible. Enjoy the beautiful flowers in spring, the delicious fruits in summer, and the colorful foliage in autumn. Just keep an eye out for any signs of pests or diseases and take appropriate action.
