Blueberry 'Nocturne' (Vaccinium corymbosum)

An exciting new release from the USDA that features delicious dark black fruit on a beautiful 5-6 foot tall bush. Nocturne is a complex hybrid of three different blueberry species, this results in a plant breaks dormancy later than any other southern highbush and is less susceptible to late spring frosts, making Nocturne the best Southern Highbush type blueberry for northern growers. High levels of anthocyanins in the fruits make this variety especially nutritious!  Blueberries are partially self-fertile...plant two varieties for best pollination.
