You've been eating fruit your whole life so we don't have to tell you what makes blueberries so wonderful. But recent studies have elevated this colorful orb to superstar status, as it provides antioxidants that protect body cells against free radical damage. Don't you love it when something delicious turns out to be healthy, too. (Remember when the scientists decided dark chocolate and red wine provided health benefits? Yippee!) Blueberries produce more fruit when they have another variety planted nearby for pollination so we offer these in pairs, with one each of sweet, productive types that flower at the same time. The bees do all the hard work and you'll be harvesting fruit midsummer, with 10-15 lbs from each mature bush. The pair includes one Legacy and one Arlen, recommended highbush cultivars (no stooping to pick) for California, Pacific Northwest and Northern gardeners. |
