SMALL FRUIT 
BLUEBERRY 
The Blueberry—a beautiful plant—Plant them and 
give them a chance. In a few years they will be the 
queens of your home garden. Grow them for their 
beauty; grow them for their wonderful crops of fine 
fruit. The bush, the only one that pays its way yearly 
with a minimum of attention. So beautiful are these 
new shrubs all through the year that one wonders how 
any other bush can be compared with them. In the 
spring, they are veritible drift of creamy bloom, which 
is followed in midsummer by clusters and spikes of 
great berries of the bluest blue, unmatched for their 
luscious flavor. With the approach of fall, their leaves 
take on handsome colors of rich carmine and coppery 
reds and coppery gold that lasts long after all other 
shrubs have been denuded of their foliage. Finally, 
when the garden lies half buried in snow, a clump 
of blueberry bushes with their pretty red and gold twigs 
will present a most intriguing patch of misty color just 
when it is most needed. 
Blueberry plants are long lived and will probably 
outlive us all. The cultivated berry will thrive almost 
anywhere in our home grounds if treated like other 
shrubs and bushes, or fruit trees. All varieties are 
firm, very blue, meaty and have been known to keep 
for at least three weeks without sweating or withering.
