Description
Several blueberry species are native to North America. These deciduous perennial shrubs range in size from less than one to more than 13 feet tall and produce sweet, edible fruits in colors from light blue to black when ripe. Though wild blueberries are abundant, before the 20th century the fruit was not cultivated. While others had tried to domesticate the plant, it was Frederick Coville, a United States Department of Agriculture scientist, who discovered, after much trial and error, that the plants thrive in acidic soil. Soon after he published his results in 1910, he began a long collaboration with Elizabeth White, a New Jersey cranberry farmer, to hybridize wild blueberries and bring to market the first fruits of this newly domesticated plant. Today, the highbush blueberry is the most widely cultivated of the blueberry species; it is grown extensively in Michigan, Georgia, Florida, Oregon, Washington, New Jersey, California, and North Carolina as well as in many other states. The southern rabbiteye species, which can tolerate higher temperatures, also flourishes in the American South. Many acres of lowbush blueberry are intensively managed in Maine. Most of the world’s blueberries are grown in North America, but the fruit’s popularity has spread worldwide, especially to Europe and Australia, and now is rapidly being planted in South America, Africa, and parts of Asia. Blueberries are culinary wonders, used in everything from compotes and cobblers to smoothies and salads. They are also a tasty snack all by themselves, with added benefits—blueberries are an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
