Thompson & Morgan 1 x Blueberry (vaccinium) Brigitta 1.5 Litre Pot, Blue

Blueberry 'Brigitta' (Vaccinium corymbosum) is a late-season highbush blueberry variety renowned for its large, light blue fruits that reach perfection by late August. These berries are distinguished by their delightful crisp texture, perfect for both fresh consumption and freezing, enhancing their versatility. Standing as a hardy shrub with a height and spread of up to 180cm (70.9 inches), 'Brigitta' finds a welcome home in patio and kitchen gardens. Beyond its delectable berries, the plant offers aesthetic appeal with sweetly scented creamy white spring blossoms and fiery crimson autumn foliage. It's worth noting that 'Brigitta' isn't self-fertile, necessitating cross-pollination for optimal fruit yield. With an estimated time to cropping as early as 4-8 months post-planting and peak yields at 28-32 months (or 16-20 months for 3l potted plants), 'Brigitta' embodies the satisfaction of growing your own scrumptious blueberries.
