Silver Creek Nursery Ltd.

Potted Chandler Highbush Blueberry

Available only for pick-up at nursery.

Species: Vaccinium corymbosum

History: Chandler higbush blueberry was introduced in 1995. It originated in Corvallis, Oregon where it was developed by the United States Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service agency's (USDA-ARS) Blueberry Breeding Program.

Why We Grow It: Chandler produces the largest blueberries in the commercial industry, and plenty of them! They are sweet and juicy despite their size and can be harvested over a long period of time. Blueberries are great for baking, for example Steph made some wonderful black currant and blueberry tarts that are pictured here!

Flowering Time:

Pollination Requirements: Self-pollinating, this variety will produce fruit without a different highbush blueberry variety but will produce more and better fruit if one is present

Sun/Shade Requirements: Full sun (approx. 8-10 hours of sun daily) preferred but will tolerate partial shade

General Growth Habit: Shrub grows 1.5-2m tall, vigorous with an upright growth habit, produces good crops

Reminder: Potted plants are available for pick-up only!

Potted plants vary in size and age, but we typically pot berries and smaller seedlings in 1-3 gal pots and larger grafted trees in 5-16 gal pots.
