Online Orchards 1 Gal. Elliot Blueberry Plant (2-Pack)

The Elliott Blueberry can be counted on to produce a bounty of late-season light blue fruit year after year. When fully ripe, the fresh flavors of these berries explode for a sugary sweet treat fresh from the bush. These mainly upright bushes bear bunches of flavorful berries that are well-exposed for an easy harvest. Elliott is a classic blueberry variety for its fruit, but also adds unique landscape value! The colorful display starts in spring, with beautiful, bell-shaped pink flowers. Dark red stems hold the newly emerged bright green foliage. Clusters of vividly blue berries mature and darken as the summer wears on. Elliott is a precocious variety, meaning that it tends to bear fruit sooner than other varieties. Late season Elliott berries are also prized for baking as their firmness and complex flavor holds up well in pies and tarts. You can pick for several weeks, depending on your taste preferences. As the berry ripens, fruit sugars develop for a succulent sweet taste. Self-pollinating Elliott can produce up to 25 lbs. of fruit with partner plants nearby to help with cross-pollination! As autumn approaches, the foliage turns an outstanding mix of fiery red, orange and yellow.
