Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Chippewa’

Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Chippewa’ is a compact and hardy blueberry variety that produces sweet, juicy berries in mid-summer. This deciduous shrub grows up to 4 feet tall and wide, with glossy green leaves that turn shades of red and yellow in the fall. In the spring, ‘Chippewa’ produces clusters of small white-pink flowers that give way to an abundant crop of medium-sized blueberries in mid-summer. The berries are very flavorful and can be eaten fresh, used in baking, or frozen for later use. ‘Chippewa’ is a self-fertile blueberry variety, meaning that it does not require another plant for pollination, but planting another variety nearby can increase berry production. This variety is also known for its resistance to diseases and pests, making it a low-maintenance choice for home gardeners. ‘Chippewa’ prefers acidic soil and full sun, but can also tolerate partial shade. Overall, Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Chippewa’ is a delicious and reliable blueberry variety that is perfect for small gardens or containers.
