How to care for a pink Icing blueberry bush?

Plant in full sun with acidic, well-draining soil for best results. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy, and feed once or twice during the growing season with a fertilizer formulated for acid-loving plants like our Liquid Blueberry Fertilizer. Mulching around the base helps maintain soil moisture and protect roots year-round.

Pink Icing® Blueberry Features Colorful Leaves, Sweet Berries, and Compact Growth

The Pink Icing® Blueberry brings ornamental appeal and fruiting power to your garden. Its pink and green foliage shifts to turquoise in cooler months while producing juicy blueberries in summer. Compact and easy to grow, it’s perfect for containers or small spaces.

A Colorful, Compact Blueberry That Delights All Year Long

Add beauty and bounty to your garden with the Pink Icing® Blueberry, a compact fruiting shrub that offers stunning year-round color and delicious homegrown berries.

A Modern Marvel of Edible Landscaping

Developed as part of the Bushel and Berry® collection, the Pink Icing® Blueberry was bred to combine ornamental appeal with reliable fruit production. It remains naturally compact, reaching only about 3 to 4 feet tall and wide, making it perfect for patios, porches, and small gardens. While traditional blueberry bushes are prized for their fruit, Pink Icing® adds a decorative flair that transforms any space into a four-season showcase. In spring, clusters of white flowers attract pollinators, followed by plump, sweet blueberries in summer. As fall arrives, the foliage takes on rich jewel tones that last through winter, giving this plant an ever-changing charm.

Care Guide for Pink Icing® Blueberry

The Pink Icing® Blueberry thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers acidic, well-drained soil. Regular watering is important during the first growing season to help the plant establish a strong root system. Once established, it becomes more drought tolerant but will still appreciate deep watering during fruit production. Adding a layer of mulch around the base helps retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and discourage weeds. For the best fruit set, consider planting another blueberry variety nearby to encourage cross-pollination. Fertilize in early spring with an acid-loving plant fertilizer to promote healthy foliage and abundant berries.

Features and Benefits of the Pink Icing® Blueberry

The Pink Icing® Blueberry is more than a fruiting shrub; it is a living work of art. Its compact, rounded form fits easily into small spaces, while its color-changing foliage adds visual interest all year. The plant produces large, sweet blueberries that are perfect for fresh eating, baking, or preserving. In addition to its ornamental beauty, it provides valuable habitat for pollinators.
