#ProPlantTips for Care:
Prolific Bluecrop Blueberry in well-drained, wet, or medium moisture soil. You'll want to water it frequently since its shallow fibrous roots need lots of moisture. Make sure your Bluecrop gets full sun, or partial shade in hot climates, and acidic soil rich with organic nutrients and quality mulch.
