Blueberry bush

Blueberry Bushes produce edible fruit in a wide range of colors and flavors, ranging from sweet to tart. They can be planted in your garden, alone as an ornamental bush, or in containers inside your home or on your patio. Most Blueberry Bushes are self-fruiting and thrive on their own, but planted with other blueberry plants, they will cross-pollinate and provide a larger harvest of berries.
