About This Product
The Pink Lemonade (Vaccinium 'Pink Lemonade') is a unique blueberry bush hybrid called rabbiteye. All rabbiteye blueberries can be grown in colder climates. Pink lemonade blueberry shrubs only require 300-hours of temperature below 45 degrees Fahrenheit for best growth, while other rabbiteyes require about 500/1000-hours.
Highlights
- Rabbiteye varieties are more compact and can be grown in most zones except those with extreme temperatures
- Hardy in zones 4 through 8 and sometimes 9, pink lemonade blueberry bushes produce well in cold climates and areas with mild Winters in spring, pinkish white, bell-shaped flowers attract butterflies and form pale green berries
- While all "blueberries in are actually pale pink before they ripen, this variety matures a pinkish-red in mid-Summer, the larger crop typically comes mid to late Summer, followed by a smaller crop steadily through october
- Many gardeners and fruit lovers say the pink lemonade blueberries taste twice as sweet as regular blueberries, both of which are high in antioxidants glossy foliage turns golden yellow to bright orange to deep burgundy color in fall, giving way to reddish-brown twigs in Winter, it grows 4 to 5 feet tall and wide
- Ink lemonade blueberry can be grown as a hedge, as a specimen in containers or as a less formal shrub in native plant gardens or woodlands plant in mixed shrub borders among rhododendrons and azaleas, which share similar needs for acidic soil, it grows well in city gardens, cottage gardens or coastal gardens, while blueberries are self-fertile, cross-pollination produces larger berries and larger yields, if possible, plant more than one variety that will bloom at the same time

This very versatile plant is suitable for patio pots and even in your landscape. You should plant in full Sun. It needs soil with a pH of 5.5 or less.

In fact, it ripens earlier than most other southern highbush varieties while producing vast quantities of high-quality fruit. They grow 4 to 6 feet tall with green foliage and a long harvest period. The O'Neal is a self-pollinating blueberry. However, it bears better yields when partnered with other southern highbush varieties.
