Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip

Plant Chandler Blueberry in full sun with rich, well-drained acidic soil. Maintain soil acidity with peat moss, pine mulch, or a soil mix designed for azaleas and rhododendrons. Water regularly to keep soil moist, especially during fruit development, and apply mulch to protect shallow roots. Prune older canes in late winter to encourage new growth and improve airflow. While Chandler is self-pollinating, planting it with another variety will increase yields and extend your harvest season. Its large berries and ornamental beauty make it a must-have centerpiece in any edible garden.

Why Plant Chandler Highbush Blueberry?

Big dollops of juicy, sweet goodness! Chandler Highbush Blueberry boasts the largest blueberries of any selection you can grow. These plump, luscious berries cannot be picked by machine, and they ripen over an extended period. As a result, commercial growers don’t want to mess with them, and you generally can’t buy them in stores. But what makes Chandler impractical for big growers makes it wonderful for home gardeners. You get a long season of harvest and fruit that puts supermarket produce to shame! Plant Chandler near your door for easy, fresh summertime snacking.

How to use Chandler Highbush Blueberry in the landscape?

Take the time to appreciate Chandler Highbush Blueberry’s exquisite flowers in the spring. The dainty white blossoms, shaped like tiny, upside-down urns, make a pleasing show. You’ll also enjoy the flaming orange-red color that Chandler’s foliage takes on in the fall. A delightful Accent with or without fruit!

How To Plant Chandler Highbush Blueberry

Acid soil is key to growing Blueberries successfully. These peat-loving Accents require very low–pH conditions in order to thrive. If your soil isn’t naturally acidic, you may want to grow Chandler Blueberry in a large container or raised bed. Give it all-day sun if possible and use lots of organic matter—both as a soil amendment and as mulch. Water weekly if no rain falls. Chandler Blueberry is self-pollinating, but you’ll get bigger fruits and more of them if you plant another variety of Highbush Blueberry nearby so they can pollinate each other.

How Does Shipping Work?

Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you.

*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.

Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.

Shipping Delays:

From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.

How Does Sizing Work?

The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)

Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.

All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
