Plant Description

Vaccinium corymbosum, commonly known as the highbush blueberry, is a deciduous shrub. It features glossy, dark green leaves that turn vibrant shades of red and orange in autumn, providing seasonal interest. The stems are slender and woody, supporting clusters of small, bell-shaped white to pink flowers in spring, which later develop into blue-black berries. These blueberries are renowned for their sweet, juicy flavor and rich antioxidant content, making this plant a popular choice for both home gardens and commercial orchards.
