To ensure your Dwarf Top Hat Blueberry thrives, plant it in well-drained sandy soil with a pH of 4.0 to 4.5. Enriching the soil with compost, peat moss, leaf mold, or manure will further enhance its richness. When planting in containers, select pots that can accommodate fully grown blueberry plants and have adequate drainage holes. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and as deep as the plant’s growing container. Add organic matter to the hole, loosen the root ball, and place it in the hole. Fill the hole with surrounding soil and tamp to eliminate air pockets. We ship these plants bare root, ensuring they arrive healthy and ready to plant.
