Grow your own blueberries with the 1 gal. 'Becki Blue' Blueberry Bush. Blueberry is fruit-producing from the rabbit-eye family. This blueberry bush is naturally heat tolerant which makes it well suited for growing in the southeastern United States (USDA Zones: 6-10). Early in spring blueberries will be covered with white and pink bell-shaped blooms, then will yield large dark blue blueberries in late spring to early summer. Plant 'Becki Blue' with different varieties of blueberries for cross-pollination, as this will vastly increase and improve fruit production. For best results, plant the blueberry bush in a location that receives full sun to partial shade and in soil that is acidic and rich with organic matter. Annually, use a slow-release acidic fertilizer on your blueberry plants.
