"Chippewa" Lowbush Blueberry

A half-high blueberry variety bred for extreme cold tolerance, Chippewa produces firm, sweet berries with a rich, wild blueberry flavor. The fruit is slightly smaller than commercial highbush types but makes up for it in complexity of flavor and intense blue coloring. Great for container growing or compact edible gardens. More rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and acids, making them irreplaceable for immune and brain health. Fall foliage is a brilliant scarlet red.
