Vaccinium 'Nocturne' Blueberry

The plump, sweet berries of Vaccinium 'Nocturne' Blueberry are as ornamental as they are delicious. Part of this hybrid shrub's appeal is the striking contrast between its unripened mango red berries and its clusters of mature inky black berries. A rabbiteye x highbush cross, 'Nocturne' bears fruit in late season.

Boasting extreme cold hardiness, this blueberry bush is perfect for northern gardens. While 'Nocturne' is self-fertile, planting it near other blueberries helps promote cross-pollination and results in heavier yields. Berries may be harvested late in summer, and while they are not quite firm enough to tolerate storage or shipping, they are great fresh and make an excellent addition to your breakfast cereal and baked treats.
