Fruit Quality and Harvest Time

Legacy blueberries are large, round, and sweet with a pleasant balance of flavour. The harvest period is late summer, usually from December to January in NZ, providing fresh berries when others have finished. Perfect for eating fresh, baking, or freezing.

Growing Conditions and Plant Size

This rabbiteye variety grows into a dense bush around 1.5 to 2 meters tall and wide. It prefers acidic, well-drained soils with a pH between 4.5 and 5.5 and thrives in full sun. Legacy adapts well to New Zealand’s climate but benefits from frost protection in cooler areas.

Pollination and Care

To ensure a good fruit set, plant Legacy alongside other rabbiteye varieties like Tifblue or Brightwell for cross-pollination. Water regularly during dry spells, mulch to retain moisture, and prune in late winter to maintain plant health. Apply acid-loving fertiliser in early spring for optimal growth.
