Kensington (vic) Plants - Most PopularInclude: Surrounding Suburbs (recommended) Plants not in stock Popularity: 2 Blueberry - Biloxi
The variety Biloxi was developed as a pollinator for Misty in Mississippi, for early season areas. One of the parents of this variety is Sharpeblue. In early trial plantings on the North Coast, it has fruited well with large medium flavoured berries early, but the fruit size drops off towards the end of the season. The fruit is light blue, with a mottled bloom appearance. It is of average flavour, with a medium scar and firm fruit. So far, in trial plantings, Biloxi has a habit of producing late spring flowering and a second harvest, during January and February.
Popularity: 2 Blueberry - Brightwell
Vigorous, upright plant, which produces outstanding yields of medium-sized fruit. Rabbiteyes are hardy and well suited to the subtropics. It ripens early to midseason.
Popularity: 2 Blueberry - Misty
The Misty is a true enigma, in that where it grows vigorously, such as on the red kraznozem soils of Northern NSW, it is very profitable and popular, yet on other soils it has often not grown well and is not a variety of popular choice. To produce high quality, early fruit, Misty is best grown under the evergreen system with attention being paid to nutrition and leaf diseases in order to keep the older leaves. It is an early fruiting variety, with light blue, medium to large fruit of excellent flavour.
Popularity: 2 Blueberry - Powderblue
One of the toughest blueberry varieties. It is a late season variety that may be planted with Tifblue for good cross-pollination. It can be mechanically harvested for fresh fruit, and the fruit has a very attractive pale blue colour, is medium in firmness and medium in size.
