Vaccinium corybosum var. Elliot
High-bush type cultivar.
Yields are consistently high, 10-20 pounds per bush at maturity. Generally, these are large berries with approximately 75 berries per cup. Elliot blueberries are light blue in color, very firm, and have no picking scar. They offer a full blueberry flavor when fully ripe.
Ripening date is around September 1st. Their growth habitat is upright and slightly spreading. Ornamental use is quite beautious based on its upright growth habit, bluish-green leaf color, and late blooming white, bell-shaped flowers. Fall color is orange-red and long lasting.
Elliot is a great blueberry for fresh eating or processing. The Elliott blueberry is the best quality and colored berry at this time of the year so it is a very good choice for the home garden or a great cultivar for the fresh market.
Harvesting can be done by hand or mechanically. Elliott adapts very well for mechanical harvesting because the berries ripen simultaneously so that 70-80% of the berries can be picked at one time.
