  Vigorous plants with a strongly upright habit and a good resistance to inclement weather, produce a bumper crop of sky-blue fruits late in the season. These large fruits ripen over a period of several weeks and once picked, have a good shelf-life. Each fruit has a delicious aroma and tasty flesh, making them a very popular choice.
  
  
• Garden care: Prepare the ground well before planting. Prune in winter, cutting out dead or damaged branches. In spring, feed with sulphate of ammonia, sulphate of potash and bonemeal and top-dress with ericaceous compost.
