Thiessen Saskatoon (Serviceberry) vs Chippewa BlueberryAmelanchier alnifolia Thiessen Vaccinium x Chippewa SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Thiessen Saskatoon is a deciduous shrub that produces delicious edible fruit. It is one of the most productive saskatoon varieties. Its fruit is great in pies, preserves or eating fresh. Chippewa Blueberry is the perfect shrub for attracting birds and butterflies. Incredibly cold-hardy, the Chippewa Blueberry is an upright shrub making it easy for harvesting. Known for producing high yields of large blue-colored berries, this blueberry is a favourite for fresh eating, baking, and preserves. As with all blueberries, the Chippewa needs soil with a low pH and high acidity. THIESSEN SASKATOON (SERVICEBERRY) QUICK FACTSCHIPPEWA BLUEBERRY QUICK FACTS
