Description
Pink Lemonade Blueberry offers four seasons of color and sweet edible berries that you guessed it...are pink instead of blue! The pinkish-white showy spring flowers are bell-shaped and followed by the vibrant pink berries. Leaves are glossy green and lanceolate. Leaf surface texture is smooth, very similar to that of Vaccinium ashei. In fall, the leaves turn golden yellow, then bright orange. Wintertime twigs are dusky reddish-brown.
The ideal adaption of 'Pink Lemonade' is not fully known at this time, but its background suggests it performs well or better in milder climates, including areas where rabbiteye blueberry cultivars can be grown. It ripens mid-late to late-season, with good yields of firm, medium-sized, glossy, bright pink fruits that have a mild and sweet pleasant flavor.

Growing Preferences
Blueberry plants grow best in an acidic (pH of 4.8 to 5.2), organically rich, moist, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. The more sun the better for best berry production. The shallow, fibrous roots of blueberry plants like a consistently moist but well-drained soil which can be provided by with a layer of organic mulch. Although blueberries are self-fertile, cross-pollination produces the best fruit crop (larger berries and larger yields). Therefore it is best to plant more than one variety that will bloom at the same time. Blueberry season can be extended by planting early, mid-season and late varieties. Make sure to plant two different cultivars/varieties for each season. USDA Zones: 4a-8b Find Your Zone
