Blueberry (Vaccinium) ‘Pink Popcorn’ 2 Gal

Pink Popcorn® Blueberry
Vaccinium 'PINK POPCORN™' MNPINK1 USPP25792P2

Delightful, tasty light pink fruit on these half high blueberries! The moderately crisp berries have a balanced, sweet-tart flavor with moderate aroma. Grow these sturdy plants as you would other blueberries - they love rich, acidic, moist, well-draining soil. 

Compact, vase-shaped bush 4-5'T x W. 

Best fruit production in full sun, although they do tolerate partial shade. 

Cold hardy to zone 4 (-30F). 800-1000 Chill hours.

Plant Nerd: These plants are from the cold hardy blueberry program out of the University of Minnesota. These plants are somewhat mysterious, they were found in a field growing a combination of our WNC native northern highbush (Vaccinium corymbosum) and US native lowbush blueberries (Vaccinium angustifolium). They appear to primarily take after the northern highbush by having a high chill hour requirement which is excellent for our area, it means they're less likely to bloom too early in spring.
