Buying an organic blueberry bush: a juicy harvest, pure happiness

An organic blueberry bush is more than just a plant: it's an investment in flavor, health, and gardening pleasure. These berry bushes thrive in both open ground and pots, forming vigorous, hardy shrubs. Plukkers.com offers reliable, certified organic varieties that guarantee a bountiful harvest and vibrant autumn colors.

Why an organic blueberry bush?

  • Rich in antioxidants : Blueberries contain valuable vitamins and are one of the top antioxidant berries.
  • Enjoy fresh fruit : Nothing tastes as delicious as berries from your own garden – from jam to smoothies.
  • Sustainable choice : Organic farming supports soil life, bee populations, and your health.
  • A stylish vegetable garden : The white bellflowers in spring and the red autumn leaves provide an aesthetic advantage.

Our favorite varieties

  • Blueberry 'Bluecrop' Organic
    These medium-sized, slightly sweet berries appear in July. The Bluecrop is a self-pollinating, vigorous shrub with a high yield and beautiful white flowers.
  • Blueberry 'Duke' Organic
    An early variety: you can harvest large, mildly sweet berries as early as June. The Duke has sturdy branches and compact growth – ideal for smaller gardens.

How to plant and care for the shrub

  1. Planting time : from September to March, outside frost.
  2. Location : full sun is preferred, but light partial shade is also allowed.
  3. Soil : acidic (pH 4.5–5.5), airy and rich in humus; consider peat moss or compost.
  4. Planting distance : keep 100–150 cm between bushes.
  5. Water : Water consistently, especially during droughts and the first year.
  6. Prune : annually in late winter; remove old branches to keep the shrub vital.

Harvesting and storing

  • Harvest period : Bluecrop in July, Duke even in June.
  • Uses : eaten fresh, in yoghurt, pastries, jam or smoothies.
  • Storage : kept cool, they will keep for several days; they can be frozen for winter use.

Green pleasure for garden and table

An organic blueberry bush is a real asset to any gardening enthusiast. It not only produces healthy, flavorful berries but also adds color and texture to your garden. Children love picking them, and you'll be proud to share the fruit. Plus, the white spring flowers and red autumn leaves make this crop a seasonal treasure.
