CLEAN FRUIT 
Question 4 . How high do they grow? 
Ans. Blueberry plants will attain a height 
of 6 to 7 feet or over, but will give best results 
if held down to a height of 6 feet. 
However, in some sections plants have been 
known to grow to a height of 14 feet. 
Question 5. Are they shapely? Is there much 
pruning to do? 
Ans. Indeed yes. Blueberry plants are in 
themselves very shapely, and when given 
proper care and trimming they make a very 
ornamental shrub. The amount of pruning will 
depend upon the variety. Both the Cabot and 
the Pioneer are inclined to overbear, and the 
timely removal of all undeveloped or weak 
branches will prove most beneficial to the 
plant. 
Question 6 . Do blueberry plants require 
spraying? 
Ans. So far, during the fifteen years that 
we have grown these plants for their fruit, 
we have not sprayed them. The blueberry is 
the cleanest fruit that we have any knowledge 
of.
