CULTIVATED BLUEBERRIES 
and How to Grow Them 
Probably no fruit has undergone within the past few years 
greater improvement than the blueberry. Improved named varieties 
now offered are the result of cross breeding the native wild blue- 
berries, which are now miniature berries compared with the new 
hybrids, which grow in such large clusters. The demand for this 
new fruit, fresh, frozen or canned, is tremendous. 
These hybrid blueberries make a most profitable crop. 
These bushes make a most attractive ornamental shrub for the 
lawn or for hedges. 
Three or four different varieties should be planted to pollinate. 
They can be planted in any good garden soil and should bear a few 
berries the first year. 
Blueberries require an acid humus soil. If your soil is deficient 
in humus and acid, we recommend making a heavy application of peat 
moss, rotted sawdust, decayed leaves or some other such material. 
It is better not to use any commercial fertilizer the first two or three 
years.
