Fruit & Orchards

Is it time yet?

9 years ago

This is berries from my Star blueberry plant. It was planted this winter. I have already had a few damaged berries turning blue but now I see a few healthy ones turning. Is it time in central Alabama for it to ripen. Is it a good flavored berry? Any input is welcome.

Star is a good berry but not great by any means. I've started harvesting mine in the greenhouse. The plant has been more trouble free than most. My oldest is 11 yrs and only repotted once. I'm also harvesting Springhigh and think it has a much better flavor. In fact the best I've grown.

Fruitnut. Thanks for the tip on Springhigh blueberries. This sounds like it will be a good addition to my backyard.
