A Huge Harvest of Sweet Blueberries For Your Southern Garden

If you live in zones 7-9 and want to grow your very own delicious blueberries, then look no further than the Premier Blueberry.

In no time at all, you’ll be eating fresh, sugary sweet blueberries from your garden…

Premier blueberries are large, dark-blue berries that love to grow in the southern heat.

· Low chill time – Premier Blueberries only need 500 hours below 45 degrees.

· Heat tolerant – Unlike other blueberries, Premiers love the heat of the Southeast and it won’t damage your plant.

· Hardly any maintenance – With no pruning, very little pest problems, and an easy watering schedule, you’ll be able to enjoy your Premier blueberries without any hassle.

Picture an early summer day, walking in your garden and eating fresh blueberries that you just picked! You’ll never eat a store-bought blueberry again.

And these bite-sized sweet snacks are great for your body. Packed full of vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants, you can’t eat too many.

The Premier harvest is the biggest of any dark blueberry, so you’ll have plenty of berries for fresh eating, desserts, recipes, jams, and even freezing for later.

This type of Blueberry is a Rabbiteye and it needs another Rabbiteye to grow. We recommend planting a Powderblue Blueberry to ensure to best growth!

Happy to grow

I am very new to planting anything. I decided to try my luck planting blueberries. I ordered 2 plants from somewhere else then realized it was not compatible to my zone. Prior to ordering I entered my address and was told I am in zone 9. The blueberry tree that came up was the one I ordered. After doing research on how to take care of my new plants, I found out it would not work in my zone. It was too late to cancel. I said all that to say, my premier came in relatively good condition. The only thing were a couple of branches were broken on both my premier and brightwell blueberries. They are looking very good.

So far, so good

The plants arrived in excellent condition and have done well 2 weeks after planting. Well worth the price for the quality of plants.

Blueberry Bushes

Both my Premier & Legacy blueberry bushes are growing great. Both are loaded with pretty white blossoms, hopefully to soon be blueberry fruit. They came packaged well & planted in large pots just off my back patio. I have recently ordered some more plants. Highly recommend this company.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Judith! Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear your Blueberry Bushes are doing well and already full of blooms. Wishing you a great harvest ahead!
