Common Blueberry vs Elliott BlueberryVaccinium myrtilloides Vaccinium corymbosum Elliott SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
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.
Elliott Blueberry is a very high yielding, commercial highbush blueberry variety. If you're lucky enough to live in a suitable climate zone, Elliott Blueberry will serve you well. Its medium-size berries mature late in the summer and have a mild flavor. The berries are firm and store well. COMMON BLUEBERRY QUICK FACTSELLIOTT BLUEBERRY QUICK FACTS
