Highbush cornflower 'Razz'

FamilyEricaceae

Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Razz’ is a compact highbush blueberry valued for the intensely sweet and slightly tart flavor of its fruit. This deciduous shrub develops an upright to slightly spreading habit, taller than it is wide, ideal for edible borders, low fruit hedges, and container cultivation. In spring, pinkish-white, bell-shaped flowers attract pollinators and announce a generous summer harvest. Medium to large blueberries ripen in season and are distinguished by their rich aroma. Its dark green foliage turns reddish-orange in autumn, adding significant ornamental interest. Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Razz’ requires acidic, organic-rich, well-drained soil and a sunny exposure to ensure optimal production in temperate climates.
