Cooper Highbush Blueberry is a semi-upright spreading deciduous shrub with good production of firm, nicely sweet blueberries that ripen early.   The elliptical blue-green foliage turns shades of yellow-orange in fall. The white flower clusters bloom in spring.  Grows best with full sun and rich, moist acidic well-drained soils.  Cooper can be evergreen and produce a second crop in warmer climates (zone 9-10).  Cooper is resistant to mildew and pests.  While it can self fruit Cooper should be planted with others to cross-pollinate to increase yield. 

Vaccinium corymbosum are highly valuable for wildlife as well, being listed as a host plant for 32 different butterflies and moths, and provides nectar to several specialized bees.  The berries and branches are good food sources for birds and mammals.
