Description

An early season blueberry with rave reviews! This vigorous Northern-Southern cross produces a heavy crop of sweet, juicy, berries early in the blueberry season — and, in mild areas, a lighter second crop develops later that same year. Yields up to 15 pounds per plant. Developed in 1999, introduced in 2010. Cold-hardy. First crop ripens in late May to early June. Second crop ripens in August. Self-pollinating.

Sweetheart
Purchased 5 Sweetheart Blueberry plants to replace some of my plants I lost as a result of the drought last summer. I potted them in containers for their 1st year so I could baby them until I could put them in the garden. All 5 are growing strong, although they started a little slow at first, but then really started to flourish. Very please with the Sweetheart and recommend these to blueberry lovers.

Good
I ordered two of these and they arrived healthy and already in a dormant state because it's winter. I'm keeping them inside in pots over the winter and so far the stems are green and healthy looking. Can't wait to see them grow this spring.

These bushes started off great, but a friend of mine mowed them down, so I'm hoping they come back in the spring. We'll see.
