UsesAll of the varieties in the Bushel and Berry collection will thrive in patio pots, edible gardens or in the landscape for years of enjoyment. We recommend if planting a pot, a large pot as big as 24 to 36-inches. |
CareAllow plants to go dormant in the winter without pruning. In early spring, green sprouts will come up from the soil and also appear on some of the pre-existing canes. The sprouts from the ground will eventually become canes which will fruit the following season. Old canes with new growth should fruit this year. Cut back the dead canes without new growth to ground level. |
Hardiness ZoneBefore settling on specific varieties, detect which types of berries are best suited to your region. Raspberries hardiness zone: 3-9. Blueberries typically 5-10. |
DormancyThese Bushel and Berry varieties require little winter maintenance and usually can be left outside. In cases of harsh winter weather, insulating the plant or moving the pot to an unheated garage is a good idea. While storing the plants inside, make sure to keep the soil moist but not soaked. |
Bush and Berry - Rubus Raspberry Shortcake
Revolutionary! There is no other word for this Raspberry that is a quantum leap ahead of the competition. Dwarf and rounded, this thornless beauty tops off at only 3' in height while producing a boatload of sweet tasting mid season red Raspberries in June and July. While it does spread like other Raspberries in the ground, it is perfectly suited for growing in a container on a deck so that you can pick delicious fruit at your leisure. Gone are the Raspberries that take over the landscape! Start a berry revolution in your garden today!
Bush and Berry - Vaccinium Blueberry Glaze
Blueberry Glaze is unlike any other blueberry variety. With its small stature and incredibly glossy, dark green leaves, Bushel and Berry is reminiscent of a boxwood and can easily be sheared as such. The white with pink spring flowers beautifully contrast the deep foliage color. Small, little dark (almost black) berries present in little bundles mid-summer. The small berries have intense flavor much like the flavor of wild blueberries. With their deep flesh color, these berries pack a healthful punch with their antioxidant-rich qualities.
Bush and Berry - Vaccinium Peach Sorbet
Get ready for this easy to grow Blueberry that is as beautiful as it is productive. You'll love its landscape presence with its great foliage color as new leaves flush a distinct peachy orange color before turning dusky blue-green as they mature. Heavy blooming in May with masses of fragrant, bell shaped flowers, Peach Sorbet produces tons of large, tasty Blueberries in late July and August. If that wasn't enough to make you love it, Peach Sorbet finishes the season with a blast of fall foliage color that will have you groping for the right adjective to describe it beauty. Plant in full sun and enjoy the Blueberry fireworks year after year!
Bush and Berry - Vaccinium Jelly Bean
Everyone is looking for a dwarf Blueberry to use in the landscape but the varieties available invariably disappoint due to poor fruiting or poor growing. Jelly Bean changes all that in the form of a dense, compact, small leaved plant that produces masses of medium sized, dark blue, incredibly tasty blue berries in July and early August. It is so prolific and such an easy care, easy to grow plant that you won't know where to use it first, grouped to form a fruiting small, formal hedge in any sunny garden or in a container where you can pick right from your back door. Add in spectacular fall foliage color and you have a small Blueberry that will be a big winner in your garden.
Bush and Berry - Vaccinium Pink Icing
Pink Icing has breathtaking spring and fall foliage. Spring brings lovely new growth foliage color that has varying shades of pink mixed with blue and deeper greens. In the winter, Pink Icing foliage takes on a stunning iridescent turquoise blue foliage hue which is impressive when planted en masse. Pink Icing is a wonderful complement to Peach Sorbet, another Bushel and Berry blueberry variety. Plant Pink Icing as a backdrop with Peach Sorbet in the front for varying heights of foliage colors. Bushel and Berry network growers trialed this variety for 2-3 years and begged us to release it due to its beautiful foliage colors. So here is Pink Icing! Plant in decorative patio pots or plant in the landscape or garden for year round color and beauty.

Thank you.
I'm currently in for a degree in horticulture, and have been avidly researching, maintaining, and generally managing plants for some time, one of the reasons I'd been really excited to receive this blueberry bush. (I have a love for indoor fruiting bushes in general, but blueberries are wonderfully beautiful in the fall) I ordered the Pink Icing blueberry, and it arrived a decent time after I ordered, looking...somewhat strange right off the bat.
The stem blight was mildly apparent when I first got it (as was some leaf rust, which is already bad), but I wrote it off as wintering damage (which can happen, and it was early in the year--though the patchy top-down crumbling leaves and red-black-pockmarked stems were concerning, I decided to wait and see whether it was wintering damage or blight) and did my best to keep a pristine indoor environment (as this is advertised as a plant that does perfectly fine indoors) *with* additional full spectrum grow lights and routine checks to make sure it was getting enough sun, just in case. However, over the months I had it, the damage to the stems and leaves had quickly grown, and at the moment has consumed roughly 80-85% of the plant in dead stems and leaves.
I did everything I could to save it--carefully and quickly cut off all infected stems to try and keep blight away from healthy ones, making sure the areas were clean and well covered after the fact to prevent spread of the fungus, and made sure that the water levels, humidity levels, and temperature were all perfect. This did not stop the blight. It enveloped nearly every single stem in a matter of months, leaving only a single stem, with blight slowly crawling in a flank from the bottom and from the top toward the remaining green in the middle of the stem.
I am very disappointed and frustrated as there is nothing I can do to save this plant now, and I've done a LOT to try and curb this awful blight. This is something that *should* be spotted and culled before it's sent out, especially by a company who exclusively sells fruiting plants as a product. (And especially considering I have no idea how many other plants have been infected by this!) There is nothing more incredibly heartbreaking than seeing your flowering blueberry bush die in front of your eyes, and nothing you can do will save it. It becomes a seriously contagious biohazard to other plants, causing damage from airborne/waterborne spores released by cutting off the infected branches, which makes this an incredibly irresponsible oversight on the part of the company.
Very sad and disappointed, down one blueberry bush. I'm not keen on ordering from them again unless I am absolutely sure that there is NO blight infecting any of their bushes, at all. Please be careful with your plants if you do order and make absolutely certain that they aren't infected with stem blight--it WILL destroy your plant if you can't catch it fast enough. (And even then, good luck.)
