Peach Sorbet is a compact, ornamental blueberry you can grow in a pot on the patio or plant in the garden. Vaccinium corymbosum hybrid 'Bushel And Berry(R) Peach Sorbet(R)' offers season-long interest with fresh spring foliage tones, white bell-shaped flowers, and an abundant summer crop of sweet blueberries. It typically stays around 24 inches tall, forming a tidy mounded plant that is easy to place in small spaces.

Give it full sun to part shade for best growth and fruiting. Like other blueberries, it performs best in acidic, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. In containers, choose a pot with drainage holes and use an acid-loving potting mix; water thoroughly whenever the top inch of mix begins to dry. A layer of mulch helps conserve moisture and keeps roots cooler in summer.

For stronger crops, keep the plant evenly moist during flowering and berry fill, and feed with a fertilizer labeled for blueberries or other acid-loving plants. Remove any damaged stems as needed, and do light pruning after harvest or in late winter to maintain a balanced shape. Although this plant can fruit on its own, adding another compatible blueberry nearby can improve pollination and yield.

In colder regions, protect container plants from harsh winter wind and repeated freeze-thaw cycles by moving the pot to a sheltered location or insulating the container. With simple care, you will enjoy both the colorful foliage display and the harvest of fresh blueberries each summer.
