Incredibly hardy fruiting shrub that doesn't need a pollinator
There's nothing quite like the taste of fresh blueberries, it's such a shame that most bushes only set a single crop. That's why 'Sweetheart' is such a breakthrough - it yields not one but TWO crops of delicious dusky blue berries in a single season. Plump, firm, and bursting with sweetness, these berries are the pinnacle of perfection. Best of all, this northern highbush is self-pollinating and can yield up to an amazing 15 pounds of fruit.
Full of good things like antioxidants, potassium and vitamin C, blueberries are a sweet and delicious superfood that satisfies our snack cravings while also helping us stay healthy. 'Sweetheart' is undemanding to grow and will reach a reasonable height of 5 to 6 feet. It is also incredibly cold hardy, since it was bred for the North. It enjoys full sun in the upper part of the country and partial sun in the South and West. Grow your own rich crop of happiness with the 'Sweetheart' Blueberry Bush.
