Alpha MINI Blues™ Blueberry

Vaccinium corymbosum ‘MINI Blues’

MINI Blues™ is a new cultivar that bears huge crops of small firm violet/blue berries in mid season that have a delicious, intense, sweet/tart flavor. The 6’ tall bush is covered with blossoms and fruit, bearing two to three times as much as the popular small-fruited variety Rubel – average yield is 12 pounds per plant. The prolific crop is easy to pick by hand or with a picking machine – berries release from their stems easily and quickly. For those growers who want small, uniform, flavorful berries for muffins and pancakes, MINI Blues is your new best friend!

Disease resistance, high yields and rugged good health shine through in this variety. Standard chill hours of 800+ for best production.
