Vaccinium corymbosum 'Toro' ~ Toro Blueberry tree Grows best in part sunToro Blueberry is a native deciduous shrub that has an upright spreading habit and heavy production of huge juicy blue berries that ripen in mid season. Its elliptical green foliage turns fiery red in fall. The loose pendulous clusters of white spring flowers give way to the signature berries. Grows best with full sun and rich, moist acidic well drained soils. While self fertile, cross pollination will produce a better crop. Type: Shrub Origins: East
