As edible gardening becomes ever more popular, over 41 million individuals tended and harvest their own food last year, new varieties continue to be released. While some of these releases will become compost due to lack of performance others will become classics, Pink Lemonade in one such plant. Released by Brigg's Nursery in 2009 Pink Lemonade is the first blueberry with pink fruit. Not only is it pink but the flavor is sweet. The plant also makes for a nice ornamental addition to the garden with its pinkish-white flowers in the spring followed by clusters of pink fruit and then to finish off the year with a display of red-orange leaves.
Just grow in rich, acidic soil in full sun and you will be harvesting these delicious pink jewels come summer.
