Popular with urban gardeners, the half-high Polaris blueberry is delicious in pies, tarts, jams, muffins or fresh off the bush. A compact shrub, this plant is also popular as a friendly landscape accent as well. The name Polaris comes from the extreme cold hardiness of this variety! Home blueberry growers will enjoy a compact size and heavy fruit yield without taking up too much space in a landscape. Known for its cold hardiness, tolerating temperatures down to -35°F, and high berry production, making Polaris ideal for both home and commercial cultivation. Despite unpredictable northern growing seasons, these plants will typically bloom in late spring to early summer with berries to follow. Polaris berries are juicy, sweet and perfect for cold hardy edible landscapes.
