  Super-sized light blue fruits appear in large numbers in early July on this new, early to mid season blueberry. The berries have a delicious taste, are packed with nutrients and have a long shelf life. The spreading bushes are said to have good resistance to disease and will produce a bumper crop of berries each year. No wonder this variety is fast becoming a favourite.
  
  
• Garden care: Prepare the ground well before planting. Blueberries can also be grown in large pots and containers if ericaceous compost is used. 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.
