- Late-season berries, rich and abundant harvest
- Self-fertile shrub with vibrant autumn foliage
- Prospers in acidic soil or ericaceous compost
The Blueberry 'Brigitta' is a much-loved, late-season variety, prized for its abundant crops and ornamental qualities. This resilient shrub makes a statement in any garden, flourishing in patio pots or containers where its plump, dark berries ripen from late summer into early autumn. The berries offer a delicious treat, contrasting beautifully against the lush green foliage, which transforms into vibrant rustic orange hues as the seasons change. Delicate white flowers adorn the bush in spring, adding a touch of elegance to your outdoor space.
Ideal for gardeners of all skill levels, Blueberry 'Brigitta' flourishes in well-drained, acidic soil, preferring a sunny to semi-shaded location. In areas lacking acidic soil, consider growing this versatile plant in patio containers filled with a blend of ericaceous compost and John Innes No. 3. Reaching a mature height and spread of up to 180cm (71 inches), this self-fertile blueberry variety is perfect for compact gardens, offering both aesthetic appeal and a bountiful harvest year after year.
How to Grow: Plant in a sunny to semi-shaded spot. Hardy in most UK climates. Keep soil consistently moist, especially during fruiting. Feed with ericaceous fertilizer in spring and summer. Moderate humidity is preferred; ensure good air circulation. Images are for guidance only and show the expected results of plants upon maturity. Different growing conditions might vary results. Images may be included for illustration of supply but can vary due to seasonal changes (e.g., deciduous plants lose leaves in colder months). Decorative pots are not supplied.
