Thompson and Morgan Blueberry Vaccinium Osorno Potted Plant 1.5L

Blueberry 'Osorno' is a robust and fruitful addition to any garden, favoured for its abundant crops of delicious, medium-sized, light blue berries. This early to mid-season variety thrives in sunny to semi-shaded locations, making it versatile for both garden beds and large patio containers. Known for its resilience in hotter climates, 'Osorno' boasts a semi-upright growth habit with numerous canes that bear fruit prominently for effortless picking. While it may not be as winter hardy as some varieties, its performance in warmer UK regions makes it an excellent choice for home gardeners and commercial growers alike. In addition to its bountiful harvests, Blueberry 'Osorno' offers aesthetic value throughout the seasons. In spring, the shrub adorns itself with clusters of sweetly scented creamy white flowers, attracting pollinators to ensure a fruitful crop. Come autumn, its foliage transforms into fiery crimson hues, adding a vibrant touch to acidic borders or container gardens filled with ericaceous compost. Whether enjoyed fresh, baked into pies, or preserved in jams and muffins, the berries from 'Osorno' are sure to delight with their robust flavour and firm texture.
