Bushel and Berry® Perpetua Blueberry Bush

Get Double the Amount of Berries!

TWO Bountiful Crops of Blueberries Every Year!

One of the newest hybrids in the Bushel and Berry collection of compact fruit, the Perpetua is the

only

dependable double-cropping blueberry bush

! It can produce

twice as much fruit

in the same or less space as any other variety.

The Perpetua flowers in April -- along with other blueberries -- producing a

full crop in early summer

. Soon after the last berry is picked, it blooms again in mid-summer for

another helping of fruit in late August

. This second batch of blueberries continues to ripen through fall until frosty nights set in.

Delicious, Edible Landscaping

Whether you’re looking to grow blueberries for your own dining enjoyment or want fruiting plants for bird and butterfly habitat, the Perpetua delivers a

bounty of berries 2 to 3 months of the year

!

A deep, violet-blue, these tender berries have a

mild, lightly sweetened taste

. Their small size makes them a healthy, right-off-the-bush snack or fresh topping for morning cereal and summer salads.

With two harvests, there’s no need to be thrifty. You can use the second batch to stock your pantry or freezer. Their delicate flavor makes a naturally-sweet jam. Or freeze them in quart bags for a nutritious addition to muffins, pancakes, and smoothies.

It takes the Perpetua bush about

1 year to fruit

. By the 2

nd

year, you’ll have up to

4 pounds of berries;

expect even more as it continues to mature

Although it self-pollinates, planting a second variety nearby will increase your harvest with bigger berries

and

more fruit!

Delivers Four Seasons of Color

The Perpetua is not only a tasty food source, it doubles as

colorful garden landscaping year-round.

Each spring and summer crop commences with a profusion of

small, white flowers

that soon transform into deep, blueberries. The glossy, green leaves provide a rich habitat that burnishes red after the second harvest comes to an end.

Grow Pounds of Blueberries with Ease!

A hybrid of native, North American varieties, the Perpetua Blueberry is an adaptable, easy-to-grow fruit.

Cold hardy, heat tolerant, and disease resistant

, this bush flourishes throughout much of the U.S. -- USDA zones 4-8. It performs best in a

bright, sunny location

with

well-draining, moist soil

.

Its

upright,

vase shape reaches 4 to 5 feet

and grows quickly into an edible hedge or yard border. When space is at a premium or garden conditions aren’t ideal, you can also plant this bush in a container for easy access to fresh fruit!

With two bumper crops each year, the Perpetua is the only blueberry variety that reliably delivers ripe-for-the-picking fruit much of summer and into fall.
