Common Blueberry vs Killarney RaspberryVaccinium myrtilloides Rubus idaeus x Killarney SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (we don't know if or when this product will be restocked) 
Common Blueberry isn't as large, pretty, or high yielding as the other varieties we carry. But Common Blueberry is our only blueberry that will survive in plant hardiness zones 1A to 2B. So if you happen to live in one of these zones, this is the variety for you.
Killarney Raspberry is extremely robust, with some of the best cold and disease resistance available. This could be due, in part, to it being bred in Manitoba. COMMON BLUEBERRY QUICK FACTSKILLARNEY RASPBERRY QUICK FACTS
