The original cultivar names have been lost but these plants are grown from cuttings of plants that have produced blueberries in a Greenville garden for over thirty years. They are large, upright deciduous shrubs. Like all blueberries, plant two or more clones for the best cross-pollination and fruit production. The foliage turns shades of yellow-orange in fall. While birds and other animals will share the fruits with you, these large berries are not as attractive to wildlife as the smaller fruits of wild blueberries.
