Low Bush Blueberries | Not Great For Zone 9b | Wait! Hold Up! #blueberries #containergardening



Low Bush blueberries are not great in zone 9b. They are more suitable for colder climates. And I admit they could thrive in a much better environment more suitable for their needs. I’ve manage but sometimes I wonder what would they look like (IF)?

Lowbush Blueberries

The lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) is also called the wild blueberry. It is native to the colder regions of the country, like New England. They are hardy shrubs, thriving in USDA growing zones 3 through 7. Lowbush blueberries grow to knee-height or shorter. They sprawl as they mature. The berries are small and very sweet. Don’t try growing them in warmer climates since the fruits require winter chilling.
