Ready to plant

Vaccinium corymbosum is also known as the American giant blueberry.

As you might imagine, this shrub is entirely larger than the wild blueberry we know so well (Vaccinium myrtillus). While the latter reaches a maximum height of about 60 cm, Vaccinium corymbosum can grow up to 2 meters. Compared to the classic blueberry, the American giant blueberry also has larger leaves and fruit.

Features

After a spring flowering season featuring clusters of white flowers, the firm, fragrant fruits of Vaccinium corymbosum ripen around early July. These fruits are edible and excellent for eating fresh or making juices and jams. The flesh is fleshy and sweet-tart, while the skin has a slightly waxy texture.

Caution: Blueberries have many health benefits, but do not consume them in excess: in addition to having a laxative effect when consumed in large quantities, they are not recommended for anyone taking anticoagulant, antidiabetic, or antiplatelet medications.

In spring, in April and May, it produces clusters of white flowers, followed around the beginning of July by the ripening of firm and fragrant fruits, with a sweet-tart taste.

Shrub that can reach 2 meters in height. Prefers an exposure in partial shade or full sun, with a moderate resistance to drought and cold, around -10°C.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
