The Pink Lemonade Blueberry blueberries are a wonderful pink, until they ripen. In the spring dainty clusters of white flowers with pink overtones give way to pale green fruit that changes to a deep pink in late summer/early fall, and finally ripen blue. The vivid pink berries contrast the shiny green foliage before the leaves turn a golden yellow and then orange in the fall. This high-yielding shrub is best used in shrub borders and the fruit is delicious fresh or in pies and preserves. A great fruit shrub to pair with Azaleas.
