Vaccinium corymbosum 'Blauweiss-Goldtraube' (F)

Plant in a sheltered site in well-drained, moisture-retentive, acidic soil, (pH 4.5-5.5) in sun or part shade. Alternatively grow in containers or raised beds filled with ericaceous compost such as John Innes Ericaceous. Pot grown plants benefit from winter protection. For optimal pollination and yield plant three different cultivars. For further details see blueberry cultivation

More mature plants benefit from regular pruning. See blueberry pruning

Propagate by taking softwood cuttings in late spring or semi-ripe cuttings in early summer

May be susceptible to vine weevil larvae damage especially if container grown. Protect ripening fruit with netting from birds

May be susceptible to Powdery mildews and root rot. Chlorosis due to iron and manganese deficiency may be a problem – see nutrient deficiencies
