Incredibly cold-hardy, Vaccinium 'Chippewa' (Highbush Blueberry) is a compact upright deciduous shrub, with elliptic, medium green leaves turning attractive shades of golden-orange in the fall. In late spring, bell-shaped, white flowers give way to showy clusters of medium-sized, light blue blueberries which ripen in midseason (early mid-summer). The berries have a sweet taste and a juicy texture. They are perfect for fresh eating, cooking, baking or preserves. 'Chippewa' is a half-high blueberry cultivar noted for its excellent winter hardiness.
