BerryBux Blueberry is a dwarf deciduous shrub that resembles a boxwood with a compact, container-friendly size and edible fruits.  The small deep green foliage turns bright red in fall.  Its clusters of white flowers turn into a strong yield of small dark blue berries that taste like wild blueberries in early summer.  Grows best with full sun and rich, moist acidic well-drained soils.  BerryBux is a self pollinating cultivar and has a low chill requirement of only 450 hours.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:  Medium Maintenance. Water regularly and mulch.  Prune as needed in late winter. Chlorosis may occur in high PH soils.  Blight, rot, anthracnose, canker, and mildew are occasional problems. Blueberry maggot, fruit worms, and spotted wing drosophila can damage the fruit.  Mummy berry is a fungal disease that shrivels and dries the fruit- remove affected fruit immediately if spotted.
