WEST GROVE, Pa. — Bushel and Berry, the collection of homegrown berries from Star Roses and Plants, is introducing its newest blueberry variety for 2021, BerryBux. BerryBux is an ornamental blueberry plant with Buxus-like performance and appeal in the landscape market. Its foliage and compact habit, which are similar to boxwood, make it ideal for hedges and mass plantings.
“We know that boxwood has posed certain challenges in the landscape, so this is a great alternative with ornamental appeal and the bonus of blueberries,” said Layci Gragnani, Bushel and Berry program manager.
BerryBux grows to a height of 2-3’ and works best in zones 5-8. The berries on BerryBux are small in size but have a wild, aromatic flavor.
