• Find a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining, acidic soil. You can find an amendment to adjust the pH of your soil at your local garden center. You might also check out some companion plants, such as gardenias ad azaleas, that also love acidic soil.
  • Dig a hole that is twice as wide and 1-2 inches deeper than your blueberry plant.
  • Gently lift your plant out of the container and loosen some of the roots with your fingers.
  • Place your blueberry plant in the hole and backfill evenly around the sides of the plant.
  • Water well. Your plant may need extra watering at first until its roots get established.
  • Fertilize according to package directions. Harvest fruit when the berries turn from green to blue in the summer.
