Blueberry Brigitta Blue is a useful late-season variety for extending the kitchen-garden harvest into late summer and early autumn. Its firm, mid- to light-blue berries hold their texture particularly well, making them an excellent choice for eating fresh, storing or freezing for use long after picking has finished.

This vigorous, upright deciduous bush can reach around 1.5–2.5m at maturity and also brings attractive orange and red autumn foliage. Grow in acidic, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade, or plant in a generous container of ericaceous compost where garden soil is unsuitable.

Supplied as an established 2 litre potted plant, ready to add a dependable late crop to your fruit garden.
