Chippewa Blueberry
Description
The Chippewa Blueberry is an ultra hardy "half-height" variety specifically bred by the University of Minnesota to thrive in cold northern climates. This compact shrub is highly valued for its large, sweet berries and its ability to withstand cold temperatures. It produces high yields of medium to large, light blue berries that are firm and exceptionally sweet. The harvest typically occurs in mid summer. Blueberries have shallow roots and need consistent moisture, especially during fruit formation. Beyond its fruit, it features white bell shaped flowers in spring and glossy green foliage that turns a vibrant orange or red in the fall. Best grown in full sun to maximize fruit production, though it can tolerate partial shade.
