Growing and Maintenance Tips:



Although 'Northcountry' is self-pollinating, having other varieties nearby will increase yield. It pollinates especially well with 'Northblue'.

Blueberry plants grow best in a well-drained, acidic, moist, soil, in full sun or partial shade. Fruit size and production is improved when two or more cultivars are planted together. After fruiting, prune out any branches more than 4 years old, to ensure subsequent fruit production.
