Chandler
Europe
-
Early August
A highly productive blueberry variety producing juicy berries bursting with the richest flavor. The large-fruited Chandler blueberry was developed in 1994 by European breeders. The bush is attractive for patios, with creamy white spring flowers and fiery crimson foliage in autumn. The berries are rich in health-promoting compounds and are especially delicious in pies, muffins, and jams. Fruits are delicate and not suitable for long-distance transport.
The berries are very juicy, sweet, and tart, with sweetness more pronounced than acidity. They also have a delicate and subtle aroma.
Large, firm berries weighing up to 2 grams (largest berries can reach 5 grams) and measuring 20 mm in diameter. Fruits are attractive, round, and slightly compressed on both sides. The blue skin does not change color as the berries ripen, is thin, with a light waxy bloom. Pulp is firm and striking light purple in color. Contains numerous small brown seeds. Ripe berries remain on the bush, though the variety is not known for long-term storage.
Self-pollinating.
Bushes can withstand frosts down to -28 °C. Resistant to diseases. Chandler blueberries have strong immunity, resisting fungi, aphids, and cankers. Occasionally, pests or diseases may need to be managed using chemical or natural remedies.
You can purchase seedlings of Blueberry Chandler at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.
Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
