Vaccinum corymbosum 'North country'


Highly recommended plant of blueberries!!!! Sweet and large berries!

Latin: Vaccinum corymbosum 'North country' 

Swedish: Amerikansk blåbär 'North country'
English: American blueberries 'North country'
Purchased at Plantagen (I believe) a few years ago


Of the three blueberry plants we first purchased, this is the one that we highly recommend.
It gives very large amounts of blueberries. Very good ones: sweet and large (up to 2 cm). Here you can see a few, not completely ripe ones. When they are ripe, they are larger.

Also this year, where the other two plants hardly gave results (especially Elisabeth), this one did not have any whatsoever issues. We are enjoying large amounts of blueberries.
2011-08-07: We have been picking good bunches of blueberries nearly every day for over a month now. Really incredible. Hard to understand where they all come from. And there are much more to come it seems.

It is also the first plant to give blueberries, starting out in the beginning of July. According to the producer's description, it says "august-september". I do not see this to be true. Maybe we got the wrong "name tag"? :O)
It is also has a nice rounded shape that makes it rather decorative.
According to the producer, it should survive up to Swedish zone 5.

Planted in the blueberry bed.
