Notes

'Ivanhoe' blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum 'Ivanhoe') is a shrub for food gardens, hedges, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to wet, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. White flowers open in early to late spring and draw butterflies, bees, and birds. The leaves also turn color in fall.

Pairs well with Black chokeberry, American holly, Switchgrass, and Wild bergamot.
