Vaccinium virgatum 'Climax,' commonly known as Rabbiteye Blueberry, is a highly productive and hardy blueberry variety that thrives in warmer climates, particularly in the Southeastern United States. It produces large, sweet, and flavorful berries that ripen in early to mid-season, offering a delicious harvest for fresh eating, baking, or preserving. This shrub features glossy, dark green foliage that turns a beautiful reddish hue in the fall, adding seasonal interest to the garden. Rabbiteye Blueberries are known for their tolerance of various soil types, though they perform best in acidic, well-drained soils with consistent moisture. With its high yield, disease resistance, and striking fall color, Vaccinium virgatum 'Climax' is an excellent choice for home gardeners looking to grow a reliable, fruit-bearing shrub that also attracts pollinators.
