How to grow dwarf Blueberries in pots for on your patio.

Hi Gardening Friends

Here is some information that I think will help you if you have a small space and you love blueberries. Then you can grow one of the dwarf varieties called Tophat. You can grow this

blueberry in a pot and you can have it sitting on your porch or patio. And you can amaze

all of your friends with real blueberries right off the plant from your front porch.

Tophat dwarf blueberries are only 18 to 24" tall. Tophat produces a great tasting fruit that has a slightly tart taste of a wild blueberry. Tophat will produce white flowers in the middle of spring. Which later in the year i the middle of summer comes the berries which are tasty and plenty of them. In the fall the leaves will change from a bluish green to a fiery red orange.

The zones for growing Tophat is 3-8.

You can order your Blueberries plants from.

Now after you order your Blueberries and they arrive you need to pot them in the pot that they are going to grow in. You can start to grow them in a 1 gallon container and the plants should come in a 4 inch pot container. Take it out of the pot and have the 1 gallon pot at lease half full of potting soil. and then plant the blueberry bush into the 1 gallon pot. You can also put in the pot some slow release fertilizer about one teaspoon full. Now after you are done planting

the plant water it and if the plant is dormant that i no leaves on the plant. You can set it on your patio. Winter care if you have your Blueberry Bush on your Patio and you live in a colder climate you will have to take your Blueberry bush indoors for the winter months if you are growing it in a pot. I hope you enjoy your Tophat Blueberry bush for many years to come.
