Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Duke’ is a bushy, upright deciduous shrub. It flowers late, but fruits early. Great for avoiding late spring frosts. Waxy, bell-shaped, pinkish-white flowers appear in May. Flowers are followed by medium to large, light blue blueberries, which ripen in early season (early to mid June). Produces abundant, large, light blue firm berries in summer with a delicious, sweet-tangy flavor. Fall foliage is quite attractive oranges and yellows. Flower nectar and fruit attract birds and butterflies. This early-season blueberry makes a wonderful hedge, and habitat for birds.
