O'Neal Blueberry Plant
Description
One of our best-tasting varieties. Enjoy the sweet goodness of fresh blueberries from your own plants — even during the dog days of summer. Requires mulch in winter. Introduced in 1987. Heat-tolerant. Ripens in June. Self-pollinating, but will yield larger crops if pollinated with another Southern Highbush like Misty.
