Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age

#ProPlantTips For Care
Misy’s growth is vigorous and generally provides fruit within 2-3 years. Heat tolerant in USDA growing zones 5 - 10 and only requiring 300 chill hours. It's considered self-pollinating but will produce better with other varieties nearby. Try paring your shrub with the Southmoon Blueberry!
Fruiting shrubs need full sun for the best blooms and fruit. Plant in a well-enriched site with well-drained soil.
Blueberry plants are grown in average to moist soil to do their best, preferring acidic soil. Water during times of need and apply a thick layer of mulch over the root system’s surface, to hold in moisture and insulates the roots.
This high-yielding Southern Highbush Blueberry is beloved for its delicious flavor, culinary versatility and health-enhancing attributes, Misty adds to those incredible benefits with beauty and performance. Make Misty Blueberry's beauty and healthy harvest a part of your home today!

Recommended Pollinator: Self-fertile, but for larger crops, plant with a Southmoon pollination partner.
