Vaccinium darrowii 'Rosa's Blush' ~ Rosa's Blush Evergreen Blueberry
Rosa’s Blush Evergreen Blueberry is a colorful mounding deciduous shrub primarily grown for its size and color, due to the berries ripening a few clusters at a time over a long harvesting season. This slow but strong production of medium-sized sweet blueberries ripens early. The small elliptical foliage emerges bright pink and matures to dusty blue-green with pink flush before turning deep purple-blue in fall. The shell-pink flower clusters bloom in spring Grows best with full sun and rich, moist acidic well-drained soils. While self fruiting 'Rosa's Blush should be planted with others to cross-pollinate to increase yield.
