Duke Blueberry Plant (1 Liter Container) | Northern Highbush Variety | Early-Season | Sweet & Reliable | Hand Picked Nurse
The Duke Blueberry Plant is one of the most widely planted and beloved Northern Highbush varieties, known for its abundant yields, flavorful fruit, and striking beauty through every season. This early-season variety produces large, firm berries with a sweet, mild flavor perfect for fresh eating, baking, or freezing.
Our 1 liter Duke Blueberry plants are well-established and shipped bare root for easy transplanting. These vigorous plants reach 4–6 feet tall at maturity and feature stunning white-pink spring blooms, followed by clusters of blue berries in summer and vibrant yellow-orange foliage in fall. Duke is both ornamental and productive, making it ideal for home gardens and edible landscapes alike.
While self-fertile, planting alongside other Northern Highbush varieties encourages cross-pollination and even larger harvests.

Growing Information
Blueberries thrive in acidic, well-draining soil rich in organic matter and perform best in full sun. Keep soil evenly moist and mulch around the base to protect shallow roots. For best results, plant multiple Northern Highbush varieties within 5 feet of each other to improve pollination and fruit size.
