Blueberry nursery

Cultivation of blueberries began around the 20th century; this crop was the latest to be developed into agricultural production. Today there are about 200 types of blueberries. Today, many nurseries offer customers all kinds of blueberry varieties; you can also visit a blueberry nursery through various websites on the Internet. There are 26 species of blueberries that grow in North America, conventionally divided into low-growing and tall-growing varieties, and also distinguished as “rabbit-eye” blueberries.

The blueberry nursery will help any buyer get acquainted with prices, varieties, find out when to plant, how to properly care for, and replant this or that blueberry variety. Nurseries always have catalogs with photographs; each variety has a description, which allows gardeners to make their choice.

In our country, tall blueberry varieties are gaining increasing recognition among amateur and professional gardeners; this is due to the fact that such blueberries can use acidic, peaty soils that are not suitable for other crops.

Tall blueberries reach a height of 2 meters and have an extensive root system. The berries ripen 52-90 days after flowering. From a tall blueberry bush you can get up to 10 kg of berries.

According to the ripening period, they are distinguished:

• early ripening varieties;
• mid-season varieties;
• late-ripening varieties.

Blueberries are very nutritious, low in calories and have an excellent taste. Blueberries have their characteristic color due to the plant pigment anthocyanin they contain.This pigment is also called an antioxidant plant, since blueberries are the richest source of antioxidants among all fresh berries.
