The plants held up to a hard Michigan winter - 10 below. The plants were planted two years ago. I just bought 6 more. John
Just good rich blueberry. Perfect for pies, and the local wildlife love them.
There were a number of good reviews, and I have half a dozen different varieties, so still testing...
