Highbush Cranberry vs Chippewa BlueberryViburnum trilobum Vaccinium x Chippewa SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Highbush Cranberry produces attractive white flowers in late June and bears edible fruit that matures to a bright red colour in the late summer. 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. HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTSCHIPPEWA BLUEBERRY QUICK FACTS
