Duke Blueberry

'Duke' is a highly reliable early-season northern highbush blueberry with firm, mild-flavored berries that ripen over a concentrated window. It blooms late but ripens early, helping it dodge spring frosts while still producing an early harvest. Plant in full sun in acidic soil with a pH of 4.5 to 5.5, amending heavily with peat moss and mulching with pine bark. Provide consistent moisture, avoid lime, and prune out weak twiggy growth each late winter to maintain vigor.
