The 'Prime Ark Freedom' is a thornless, self pollinating variety that produces two crops a year. Flavorful, purple fruits will ripen on younger canes in early-July, then on the year-old canes in mid-September. They average 5-6' tall and wide.
The Duke Blueberry is a Northern Highbush Blueberry, growing well in cooler climates and northern regions. Developed by the USDA in Beltsville, Maryland, this variety was released to the public in 1987.
It is known both for its early season fruit, which is large with a firm, crisp texture, and its high yield of berries. The fruit has a tangy, sweet, delicate flavor. Blueberries are a top fruit source of antioxidants, and they are high in fiber and vitamin C.
