Top Hat Dwarf Blueberry – 1 Gallon Pot

A miniature Blueberry growing to a mere 2 feet tall and 2 feet wide at maturity, Top Hat is a true dwarf selection perfect for growing in pots on the patio or deck or as a low border plant in the edible landscape. What’s more, it’s self-pollinating, which means you only need one plant to produce pounds of tasty blueberries! In spring, abundant clusters of white flowers are followed by up to several pounds of sweet and juicy dusty blue blueberries for fresh eating or in pies. The glossy, bluish green leaves are semi-evergreen and turn to bright orange and red shades in fall. 

Blueberry plants grow best in an acidic (pH of 4.8 to 5.2), organically rich, moist, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. The more sun the better for best berry production. The shallow, fibrous roots of blueberry plants like a consistently moist but well-drained soil which can be provided by with a layer of organic mulch. Although blueberries are self-fertile, cross-pollination produces the best fruit crop (larger berries and larger yields). Therefore it is best to plant more than one variety that will bloom at the same time. Blueberry season can be extended by planting early, mid-season and late varieties. Make sure to plant two different cultivars/varieties for each season. USDA Zones: 3a-8b  Find Your Zone
