Characteristics of the Northcountry blueberry plant
Northcountry is a low-growing semi-highbush blueberry variety known for its excellent winter hardiness and compact growth. The shrub typically reaches 60–90 cm in height, with a broad, bushy structure that is well suited to colder climates, container growing, and smaller plots.
The berries are medium-sized, firm, bright blue, and have a pleasantly sweet, mildly aromatic flavor. Northcountry ripens in the early to mid-season and produces a reliable yield year after year. The clusters are well-organized and easy to pick, making the variety popular with both hobby growers and professional growers looking for compact varieties with strong performance.
Thanks to its combination of winter hardiness, fruit quality, and ease of use, Northcountry is an excellent choice for cooler regions where traditional highbush varieties do not thrive as well.
