Blueberry Plant ‘Top Hat’ (Vaccinium angustifolium)

Logee’s specializes in container-grown fruits and ‘Top Hat’ blueberry is a real winner. It can be grown as a potted patio plant or as a foreground plant in the edible garden or landscape. It has a consistent round growth habit, strong flowering, and large fruit set of delicious berries. The leaves are small, finely serrated and glossy green. This self-fertile variety doesn’t need a cross pollinator to set fruit. The plentiful white blossoms appear in spring followed by an abundance of sweet fruit in mid-summer. An exceptionally hardy variety, it’s cold tolerant to zone 3. ‘Top Hat’ is a new dwarf variety that grows only 20” tall x 24” wide. It originated as a multi-generational cross between true angustifolium ‘wild’ blueberries and standard northern highbush blueberry selections. Grow in well-drained, acidic soil. Best grown in zones 3-7.
