Planting & Care

You can plant your Premier Blueberry in your garden or in a pot. Either way, you’ll need to make sure it gets full sun and the soil is well drained and acidic. If you plant in your garden, be sure to leave 10ft. of space between your other plants. Birds love blueberries too, so make sure you use a garden net to get the most out of your harvest.

Watering: Premier Blueberries are drought tolerant, but need to be watered once a week during the first year. Don’t overwater the bush. The roots are very shallow and can easily drown.

Fertilization: Once you see leaves on your plant, you can add some acidic fertilizer. Once your plant is fully mature, you can fertilize it once a year in June and again in the fall if it didn’t harvest well.

Pruning: You won’t need to prune your Premier Blueberry unless you want to manage the size and shape of the hedge. If so, prune in late winter.

Pollination: This is not a self-fertile plant and will need another variety of Rabbiteye blueberry to thrive. We recommend the Premier Blueberry.

When to pick: Your blueberries are ready to pick and eat when they fall right into your hand. When they easily fall off without plucking, then they’re perfectly ripe. Blueberries will last 1 week in your fridge, but you’ll need to freeze them if you don’t eat them in a week.
