Peach Sorbet Blueberry is a dwarf semi-evergreen shrub that produces abundant  large sweet blueberries.  Clusters of fragrant white flowers bloom in late spring before giving way to the berries that ripen to deep blue by mid summer.  The foliage emerges a colorful range of peaches, pinks, and oranges before maturing to dusky blue-green in summer and turns a deep plum in fall and winter.  Grows best with full sun and rich, moist acidic well-drained soils.  Peach Sorbet has a low recommended chill requirement of only 300 hours.
