Fast-growing bush that stays compact. An ideal candidate for container-growing. White bell-shaped flowers appear in spring, leading to sweet, dark blueberries with lots of flavor. Glossy, dark green foliage resembles a boxwood, and can add a classic (and edible) addition to any landscape. Drought-tolerant, low-chill variety. Thrives in acidic soil. Self-pollinating, but may get more fruit if planted near a pollinating partner. Ripens in June
