Vaccinium corymbosum 'Sapphire Cascade'

Vaccinium corymbosum 'Sapphire Cascade', commonly known as the 'Sapphire Cascade' trailing blueberry, is a deciduous fruit shrub with an elegant, semi-trailing habit, ideal for growing in pots, hanging baskets, or as a decorative border. In spring, it is covered with delicate, slightly fragrant, pinkish-white bells that are attractive to pollinators. In summer, it produces an abundance of firm, juicy, dark blue blueberries with a silvery bloom, their sweet flavor well-balanced by a refreshing slight acidity. Its long, arching stems laden with fruit create a particularly ornamental cascading effect. Its glossy green foliage turns orange-red in autumn, extending its visual appeal. Vaccinium corymbosum 'Sapphire Cascade' prefers acidic, organic-rich, well-drained soil, and combines fruit production with ornamental value in small spaces.
