The most widely planted early ripening northern variety. Heavy, consistent yield with an attractive, firm, light blue, high quality berry. Duke blooms late but ripens early which protects the blossoms from spring frosts. Branches may droop to the ground when laden with fruit, and requires the use a simple trellis as support. Fall foliage is orange-yellow blooming in white during the spring.

*To grow outstanding blueberries: We recommend using Biotone Starter & Compost at time of planting. For great future growth, feed with Holly Tone fertilizer 2 times per year (spring/fall) and Soil Acidifier 1 time per year.
