Vaccinum corymbosum 'Elisabeth'

Latin: Vaccinum corymbosum 'Elisabeth'
Swedish: Amerikans blåbär 'Elisabeth'
English: American blueberries 'Elisabeth'
Purchased at Plantagen (I believe) a few years ago

This is the latest of the three blueberry plants we purchased at the same time. When all other plants have no blueberries left, then this one starts producing a few, not very sweet but still tasty blueberries.
Though, this plant has never really grown to reasonable size and it has not either given a reasonable amount of blueberries. Summarizing, it has been the least productive of all blueberries.

My theory was, we probably got tired of digging and did a too little whole for it. Which might have caused the bad growth. Now we did a new peat bed, and if it had potential and my theory was correct, we'll notice the coming years. Otherwise, we'll have to be ok with the limited amounts of blueberries it gives.

Planted in the blueberry bed.
