Northblue Blueberry

Half-high blueberry (highbush/lowbush hybrid) released from University of Minnesota breeding program. First wave of half-high releases with Northsky and Northcountry. Very cold-hardy, tolerating to -35°F or lower.

Large, dark blue berries with rich, intense wild flavor. Sweet and juicy. Best-tasting of the half-high varieties. Larger berries than most dwarf blueberries despite compact size.

Compact variety suitable for smaller yards. Produces abundant quantities of firm berries - 3-7 lbs per year on mature bush. Good for fresh, U-Pick and processing markets. Self-pollinating but benefits from cross-pollination with Northcountry or Northsky for increased yields.
