Vaccinium ashei Powder Blue Blueberry

Blueberry Powder Blue is a productive Rabbiteye blueberry variety known for its reliable yields and distinctive pale blue fruit with a soft, powdery bloom when fully ripe. Powder Blue is a later-season variety, often ripening its crop in late summer through to early winter, with harvests in some regions extending toward Christmas. It is also better suited to humid climates than many other blueberry types, maintaining good fruit production where other varieties may struggle. The plant is partially self-fertile, meaning it will produce a reasonable crop when grown alone. However, yields are greatly improved when planted alongside compatible Rabbiteye varieties such as ‘Brightwell’, ‘Climax’, or ‘Tifblue’, which enhance cross-pollination and fruit set.
