Blueberries are usually known from the forest. If you want to have blueberries in your garden, get the so-called cultivated blueberries.

The home of blueberries or blueberries is the forest. If you like to go for walks in the forest, you can snack on them there or pluck them into larger people and transport them home. But that doesn't have to be the case, because blueberries are also available for the garden.

The difference is in the pulp

Then it's not forest blueberries, but cultivated blueberries that were grown especially for the garden. You can tell the difference in the flesh. Forest blueberries are blue on the inside, make beautiful blue fingers and a wonderfully blue tongue. Cultivated blueberries, on the other hand, have green flesh and do not turn blue. Don't worry, even if the flesh is green, the fruit is ripe and can be eaten without a stomach ache.

Planting Tips

In the garden, blueberries like a mix of soil and compost with a layer of bark mulch on top. Sun or shade, blueberries grow anywhere. Water sufficiently, otherwise the berries will remain too small. Incidentally, cultivated blueberries can grow up to two meters in size, so plant them with ample distance to neighboring plants.
