Transplanting Blueberry Suckers in February

February is ideal for transplanting rooted blueberry suckers severed from the mother plant last summer. They’ll be well-rooted by now.

Steps

1. Dig carefully to preserve roots.
2. Plant in well-prepared bed (acidic, well-drained).
3. Don’t expect fruit for 2 years—energy goes to roots and shoots first.

Early spring transplanting gives them a full growing season to establish.
