Vaccinium corymbosum aka Blueberry

With a bit of knowledge and dedication, you can successfully care for Blueberry, making it a rewarding choice for those seeking a moderate challenge.

Blueberry should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Blueberry loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Blueberry prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

During the wintertime, it is common for Blueberry plants to go dormant and their growth rate may slow down. Therefore, the amount of waterings should be spaced out more.

Ploi lacks confirmed information on the toxicity of this plant. If you, a relative, or your pet accidentally consume plant material with unknown toxicity, it's best to consult a medical expert.

The Blueberry grows at a slow pace and doesn't require any supplementary fertilizers. By renewing its potting soil once a year, it should receive enough nourishment. Remember, plants obtain their energy from sunlight, not fertilizers.

Blueberry’s native range is Eastern N. America - Nova Scotia to Quebec and south to Florida..
