Bask in the beautiful green foliage of Peach Sorbet Blueberry in the spring and enjoy the fruit of the gorgeous plant in late summer! Peach Sorbet Blueberry is a wonderful medium-sized berry bush that produces bell-shaped flowers in May and yields large and delicious fruits in the months of July and August. Just before winter, the foliage of the blueberry plant fades into deep, rich fall colors.
Peach Sorbet® Blueberry Bush Care
Plant Peach Sorbet in spring time when added directly to the ground in a garden space. This plant can grow about 2 feet in height and 2 feet in width. Its compact size will make Peach Sorbet Blueberry a perfect addition to your garden or in a large container. You should place the plant in full sun, about 6 to 8 hours of direct light per day. When adding directly to ground or into a large container, ensure that the plant is receiving nutrient-rich and well-draining soil combined with organic compost.
Growing Peach Sorbet® Blueberry Bushes in Containers
You can grow these blueberries in large containers. Choose a container at least 18 inches in depth with proper drainage. We recommend wide and weather resistant containers for the blueberry plant for a longer term set up.
Watering Peach Sorbet® Blueberry Bushes
Be sure to water your Peach Sorbet Blueberry every one week about one or twice, depending on the heat and sunlight received. When faced with intense summer heat, water the blueberry bush more to prepare for dry spells.
Feeding Peach Sorbet® Blueberry Bushes
Peach Sorbet Blueberry doesn’t require much fertilization at all, so feed the plant once in the beginning of spring. You can give the blueberry bush an acidic fertilizer such as cottonseed meal. After fertilizing, it is important to test the pH of the soil to ensure levels stay between 4.0 and 4.8.

?
"Blooms on" tells you which stems produce flowers, which decides when it's safe to prune.
- New Wood: Flowers form on stems that grow this season. Prune in late winter or early spring without losing blooms.
- Old Wood: Flower buds form on last year's stems. Prune right after flowering. Pruning in fall or early spring removes next year's blooms.
- Both New and Old Wood: Blooms on last year's stems and again on new growth, so it flowers even after a hard winter or a mistimed pruning. Prune lightly after the first flush of blooms.
