Blueberry 'Chandler' is self-fertile and produces a wealth of
juicy fruit that are simply bursting with the most delicious flavour.
Enormous, firm berries weighing up to 2g and measuring 20mm (¾inch) in
diameter are produced from the beginning of August until mid September.
This stout blueberry bush also makes an attractive shrub for the patio
or acidic borders, bearing masses of sweetly scented creamy white
flowers in spring, and fiery crimson autumn foliage. Blueberries are
packed with health-boosting compounds and are especially delicious in
pies, muffins and jams.
Blueberries require a
well-drained, acid soil in a sunny or semi shaded position. In areas
where acid soil does not naturally occur, grow blueberry plants in patio
containers using a mix of ericaceous compost and John Innes No. 3. If
possible, blueberries should be watered with rainwater because the lime
contained in tap water will reduce the acidity in the soil over time.
Blueberries will begin to produce fruit in their third year. As fruits
begin to develop, cover the plants with netting to protect the berries
from birds. From their third year, begin to prune out the oldest stems
each autumn to promote new growth and maintain a healthy plant
framework.
