Skip This If

Deer browse heavily unprotected.

PGNE Report Card

Category	Grade	Why
Landscape Impact	B	It looks like a clean fruiting shrub, but the main reason to plant it is the crop, not showy ornamental value.
Growth Rate	B+	It establishes at a good pace when planted in acidic soil with consistent moisture.
Maintenance	C+	It needs soil attention, pruning, watering during dry spells, and bird protection if you want a real harvest.
Deer Resistance	D	Deer may browse blueberry stems and buds, so protection matters in exposed yards.
Small Space Fit	C+	It is manageable, but it still needs room, airflow, and access for picking.
Screening Value	D	It is deciduous and fruit-focused, so it should not be counted on for privacy.
