Razz Blueberry Plant
Description
You’ll have to grow this one yourself to experience the amazing flavor. Not available in grocery stores because it’s too delicate for mass shipping. Fat, juicy berries are a pretty periwinkle blue and are simply splendid for fresh eating. It’s one of our favorites for its distinctly raspberry-flavored notes. Razz also takes well to baking and preserves. Also an extremely attractive landscape plant, with a flaming foliage show in the fall. A true winner for farmer’s markets and U-Pick farms. Disease-resistant. Ripens in July. Northern highbush. Developed by Frederick Coville at the USDA in 1934.
