color amongst the traditional blues

Because my little girl loves pink and she loves fruit. We have a couple of blue blueberry bushes already but I thought this would be fabulous and put a smile on my 5 year old daughters face. Thanks for offering it.

Hoping to have my own fresh Pink Blueberries to pick and watch grow along with my apple and banana tree.

Love standard fruits/vegetables with different colors (i.e., yellow raspberries, purple carrots, pink blueberries).

It looks beautiful, so I am hoping it will bring a little color and deliciousness to my green garden.

I want to plant 'Pink Lemonade' and see it is self pollinating. Will it also serve as a pollinator for other varieties such as Patriot?
christine on Mar 22, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Yes, it is able to pollinate itself as well as other blueberry plants.
Does this plant do well in containers?
Brittany M on Mar 11, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Brittany, Both of my pink blueberry's are in large flower pots and doing great. They do get large, so pick a pot with that in mind.
how do I get my pink lemonade blueberry plants to produce? I put sawdust/wood shavings and feed it Azalea and Rhododendron food but get just a few berries.I have three pink lemonades and for other blue varieties the blues produce but the lemonade does not. pink lemonade bushes are 3 years old
Tipper on Jul 2, 2017
BEST ANSWER: The first to do is a soil test; it's likely the soil is not acidic enough. The fertilizer you're using is meant only to maintain soil acidity, not create it in the first place. As for the sawdust: make sure it's composted, not fresh, and that it's pine. Otherwise it will draw nitrogen OUT of the soil and won't do anything to promote a low pH level in the soil. Test the soil and if the pH is too high, use a soil acidifier to bring the level down to 4.5 to 5.5. This will do the job: //www.starkbros.com/products/tools-and-supplies/soil-additives/soil-acidifier
Hi, I see that you can use this bush as an added pollinator. Will it change the taste of the berries if it cross pollinates with other berries?
Kelly L on Jul 29, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Thank you for your question. The only time cross-pollination affects the flavor of edibles is if you harvest the seed from this year's crop and plant it next year, but that doesn't apply here. So the simple answer is no, using another variety to pollinate a blueberry bush will not affect the flavor, only the yield, which will be bigger.

Perfection!
I started out with 2 plants and after tasting the 1st crops berries, I am hooked on the pinks! I find them more flavorful than the blues and they are very sweet. I ordered 8 more plants, sending 2 off to the little grand kids for their garden, keeping 6 for myself. I know when the grand kid visit they will be picking my berries.

Pink Lemonade
The plants were extremely small so at least another 1-2 years before harvest most likely. I thought for the price it was not very much value.

Pink Lemonade Perfection
Out of the 10+ varieties of blueberries i grow, Pink Lemonade blueberries have the best flavor. They seem to have a sweet blueberry taste with a hint of kiwi. They are great! These easy-to-grow bushes have a dense willow leaf appearance and turn a brilliant pink in the fall. Berries are white, pink, or mixed white and pink. They are ripe when they lose any hint of green. I highly recommend Pink Lemonade blueberries. The FuNNy FarM

I sell blueberries, and have wanted some new additions. I've had these plants about a year now and I'm pleased with their progress. Excited about these new plants!

Can't wait to see.
This is the second year for this blueberry bush. I am expecting a nice yield.
The bush is healthy and strong so I know it will do well. I can't wait to see the yield
I get this year.

Doing well growing nicely
My Pink Lemonade Blueberries are doing well. I got them Jellybean and Summer Sunset Blueberries to pollinate them. I did not allow them to produce berries this year and may not next year. The important thing is to plant them well in plenty of good soil with peat moss and compost (the ph has to be low). I only used cottonseed meal 6-1-1 to start them off. They are pretty just as a bush, but will love to see and taste their fruit.

Hardier than other blues.
This plant arrives as a PLANT, not a freeze-dried looking root ball, like I've gotten elsewhere. I over watered all my plants that spring, but it survived and grew well anyway. It doesn't taste much different from regular blueberries, but I am extremely pleased.

Growing very well
I have had this through two winters and it is growing nicely. This is the first time it has a couple of flowers on it. I cannot wait to taste the berries.

Delicious looking berries!
It has been one year since I purchased this unique looking plant and it has more than tripled in size! The surprise for me was the number of pink blueberries growing all over the place. Due to possible late frost that occur in North Carolina, I chose to grow this plant in a pot.

Neat Berry
This will be the first full season with them in the ground. They spent last summer in bigger pots healed into a nursery garden. They doubled in size and produced a few berries. Nice berries. Medium size, sweet. I look forward to cooking up a pink pie and some pink preserves.

Set them out at the end of winter in a new berry bed with a dozen other blueberries from Stark, bought and nursed in the same batch. Three of each variety for good pollination and a buffer for attrition. This is our third large berry bed. Can't have enough blueberries.

The Pink Lemonade was a much earlier starter, pushing out leaves and blooms 2 weeks earlier than the blue varieties. We are on the Ozark Plateau, zone 6 surrounded by 7. 1200' amsl.
