NOTE: All sales final. All trees shipped in good condition & watered prior to shipment. Blueberries are deciduous plants that lose all their leaves each winter– most of our plants are currently changing to their fall colors and/ or dropping leaves. Late fall & winter is the best time of the year for purchasing your deciduous fruiting plants as they suffer minimal plant stresses from being shipped and rehomed to your backyard orchard, than at any other time of the year! Expect your plants to rebound with new growth by spring, shortly after your last chance of frost date passes your growing zone.
