Planting Instructions:
Choose a sunny spot with acidic, well-draining soil; if planting in a container, select a pot with drainage holes and use a mix designed for acid-loving plants. Plant the bare-root blueberry bush at the same level it was growing in the pot, spreading the roots gently in the hole. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil around the roots and continue to provide consistent moisture as the plant establishes. Mulch with pine needles or shredded leaves to help retain soil moisture and add organic matter to the soil.
