Commonly Asked Questions
How far apart should I plant Blueberry Ash for a screening hedge? Optimal Spacing: 1.5m apart for a screening hedge. Closer planting will create a tighter, overlapping canopy. For a slightly more open hedge or slower growth. This spacing allows for better air circulation and reduces competition between plants.
Are the fruit on Blueberry Ash edible? The fruits of the Blueberry Ash are technically non-toxic, but they are not commonly considered edible for humans.
What is the ideal time of year to prune Blueberry Ash? The best time to prune Blueberry Ash plants depends on the purpose of pruning, but in general late summer or early autumn, after the flowering season has ended. This timing allows you to remove spent flowers and shape the plant without interfering with the next flowering cycle. You may also choose to prune ate winter or very early spring, before new growth begins.
