Blueberry

These deciduous shrubs typically grow 1 to 2 meters in height and thrive in acidic, well-drained soils with full sun. Blueberries are not only delicious but also rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which contribute to their health benefits, including supporting heart health, improving brain function, and offering anti-inflammatory properties.

Cultivated widely in home gardens and commercial farms, blueberries are relatively easy to grow with proper care. They are also a valuable crop for pollinators, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects. Whether eaten fresh, added to smoothies, baked into desserts, or used in preserves, blueberries are a popular and healthy fruit enjoyed around the world.
