PATRIOT HIGHBUSH BLUEBERRY

Vaccinium corymbosum 'Patriot' is commonly referred to as Patriot Highbush Blueberry or simply Patriot Blueberry. It is a bushy, upright, deciduous, Highbush blueberry with bell-shaped white flowers in May followed by firm, large, light blue blueberries that ripen midseason. Blueberries are sweet and perfect for baking, freezing or eating fresh. It is self-fertile but benefits from cross-pollination as that produces the best fruit and a better harvest.

Patriot Highbush Blueberries thrive in full sun to part shade in rich, fertile, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It can be grown in mixed shrub borders among other acidic soil lovers such as Rhododendrons and Azaleas. Its fall color is bright red and quite showy. Prune as needed in late winter in the third year after planting.

Planting Tips ⓘ

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in deep, moist, well-draining soil that is highly acidic, as this is critical for the long-term health and fruit production for blueberries. Select a location in full sun to partial shade, ensuring that the roots have access to consistent moisture throughout the growing season.

Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak wood and to thin out older branches, which encourages new, vigorous growth and maintains a productive size. Apply a generous layer of acidic organic mulch, such as pine bark or pine needles, around the root zone to conserve moisture and maintain soil acidity, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
