The Jewel Southern Highbush blueberry is a fast-growing variety that produces large, firm berries that require picking at the peak of their ripeness to fully appreciate their delicious, sweet flavor. This early-mid season variety was released by the University of Florida in 1998 and survives extremely well in commercial plantings. Jewel is partially self-fertile and grows up to 6 feet tall and 5 feet wide. Plant with another Southern Highbush variety for higher yields. Requires 200 chill hours and grows well in zones 6-10.
