BRAZELBERRIES®<br />

NEW! These new cultivars have been selected for their delicious fruit<br />

and year round ornamental beauty. While all of our blueberries grow<br />

well in containers, these plants stay small and are particularly suited for<br />

container growing in small spaces.<br />

BRAZELBERRIES®<br />

RASPBERRY SHORTCAKE<br />

For those of you with limited<br />

space, this dwarf raspberry<br />

plant is ideal for container<br />

growing. It grows only 2-3’<br />

tall with a compact growth<br />

habit. It is thornless and<br />

produces an abundance<br />

of full-size, sweet, flavorful<br />

red raspberries each<br />

summer. Your family will love<br />

harvesting healthful fruit<br />

right from your patio, and no<br />

trellising or staking is needed.<br />

It will spread to fill any pot no<br />

matter the shape. Like other<br />

floricane summer raspberries,<br />

once fruiting is finished,<br />

prune out canes at the base<br />

that have fruited leaving new<br />

canes to fruit the next season.<br />

USDA Zones 5-9. One-quart<br />

pot. E360: $19.95 each, 3+:<br />

$16.50 each; 6+: $15 each<br />

BRAZELBERRIES® JELLY<br />

BEAN BLUEBERRY This<br />

small plant, only 1 to 2 feet<br />

tall and wide, produces an<br />

abundance of large midseason<br />

blueberries, each<br />

with the super sweet flavor<br />

of homemade blueberry jelly.<br />

Bright green foliage gives way<br />

to darker greens and reds<br />

throughout the summer and<br />

fall. Try accenting a pathway<br />

with a mini-hedge of Jelly<br />

Bean or use it to set off<br />

larger shrub plantings in the<br />

landscape or in patio pots.<br />

USDA Zones 4-8. One-quart<br />

pot. E235: $19.95 each, 3+:<br />

$16.50 each<br />

BRAZELBERRIES® PEACH<br />

SORBET BLUEBERRY<br />

Year-round color makes this<br />

a perfect landscape or patio<br />

container plant. A four-season<br />

showstopper, this compact<br />

blueberry grows only 2 feet<br />

tall and wide with gorgeous<br />

spring leaves ranging in color<br />

from peach to pink to orange<br />

to emerald green. Enjoy an<br />

abundant mid-summer crop<br />

of sweet, flavorful blueberries.<br />

In most climates, Peach<br />

Sorbet keeps its leaves<br />

through the winter when the<br />

foliage transitions to a rich<br />

eggplant purple. Consider<br />

planting Peach Sorbet as<br />

a small hedge or plant en<br />

masse for dramatic color<br />

all year. In decorative patio<br />

containers, Peach Sorbet<br />

is beautiful all by itself or<br />

mixed in as an accent with<br />

other ornamental plants.<br />

USDA Zones 5-10. One-quart<br />

pot. E273: $19.95 each, 3+:<br />

BRAZELBERRIES®<br />

BLUEBERRY GLAZE <br />

This plant<br />

grows to 2<br />

to 3 feet tall<br />

as a bushy<br />

mound,<br />

perfect on<br />

the patio in<br />

decorative<br />

containers.<br />

With its small stature and<br />

glossy, dark green leaves,<br />

Blueberry Glaze is<br />

reminiscent of a boxwood and<br />

can easily be sheared. Enjoy<br />

the white and pink spring<br />

flowers followed by lots of<br />

small dark blue berries, which<br />

are rich in antioxidants and<br />

have intense wild blueberry<br />

flavor. USDA Zones 5-8. Onequart<br />

pot. E202: $19.95 each,<br />

3+: $16.50 each<br />

HUCKLEBERRIES<br />

Delicious and rarely available in nurseries, these are great<br />

edible landscape plants. Huckleberries and blueberries<br />

are closely related “Vaccinium” species. Generally the wild<br />

Pacific Northwest species are called “huckleberries” and<br />

the eastern species are called “wild blueberries.” All are in<br />

1-gallon pots.<br />

EVERGREEN<br />

HUCKLEBERRY<br />

(Vaccinium ovatum)<br />

A native of the Pacific<br />

Northwest, Evergreen<br />

is the best fruiting<br />

plant for the shade.<br />

This evergreen bush is<br />

beautiful throughout<br />

the entire year. In spring<br />

and fall, the foliage turns from green to a striking bronze<br />

color. The late summer ripening berries are dark blue, tart<br />

and flavorful and a little smaller than a blueberry. This<br />

shrub grows best in the shade where it can reach 6 to 8<br />

feet without pruning. In the sun, it only grows to 3 feet tall.<br />

It has a compact, full growth habit, and spaced about 3<br />

feet apart, it makes a beautiful evergreen hedge. USDA<br />

Zones 7-10. E180: $18.50 each, 3+: $16 each<br />

RED HUCKLEBERRY (Vaccinium parvifolium) A<br />

deciduous huckleberry native to the Pacific Northwest,<br />

this bush is attractive throughout the year. It grows 3-5’<br />

tall and produces pea size pinkish red berries that seem to<br />

light up the bush. The fruit is tangy and great for making a<br />

pie or jelly. USDA Zones 6-9. E190: $18.50 each, 3+: $16<br />

each<br />

TALL MT.<br />

HUCKLEBERRY (V.<br />

ovalifolium) This rarely<br />

offered Pacific NW<br />

native sub alpine bush<br />

grows 4 to 6 feet tall<br />

with oval leaves and<br />

an abundance of tasty<br />

black fruit. USDA Zones<br />

4-8. E185: $18.50 each<br />

THINLEAF<br />

HUCKLEBERRY (V. membranaceum) Its fruit is amongst<br />

the largest and best flavored of all the wild blueberries.<br />

Plants can grow to 5 feet tall and produce pink flowers<br />

and dark purple berries up to ½-inch in diameter. Declared<br />

the state fruit of Idaho, these plants grow throughout<br />

the Northwestern states at elevations above 2,000 feet.<br />

They are adapted to cool, short seasons. They are grown<br />

from seed, so plant at least two for pollination. Plants<br />

require a well-drained soil, preferably one that is rich in<br />

peat. Thinleaf is best grown in pots until being planted<br />

out carefully with the soil around the roots. We guarantee<br />

these plants to arrive in good condition, but because of<br />

their unique habitat requirements, we cannot guarantee<br />

them to grow. USDA Zones 6-8. E188: $18.50 each, 3+:<br />

$16 each<br />
