Notes
'Midnight Cascade' blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum 'Midnight Cascade') is a fruit for containers, hedges, and food gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It stays small, at 12 to 24 inches tall and wide, so it fits in a pot. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit it, and it grows best in acid soil.
Pairs well with PowWow Wild Berry coneflower, Woodland strawberry, and Cherry Brandy rudbeckia.
