Consequently, we’re excited to be able to offer you the finest and freshest seeds available. 200+ EUROPEAN BLUEBERRY SEEDS BILBERRY RARE AUTUMN LOW BUSH SWEET DELICIOUS USA * We have a very limited quantity of our wild Vaccinium myrtillus European blueberry. * This low-bush blueberry plant is extremely high in antioxidants. It is, likely, an even richer source of nutrients than our domesticated blueberry. * These blueberry grows wild on heathlands and more acidic soil types and are considered a dwarf shrub. * European blueberries have been consumed for thousands of years as a traditional herbal medicine due to their very high levels of antioxidants. In fact, they’re consumed as a liqueur or tea in European herbal remedies to combat diseases like diabetes or gastrointestinal issues. Also, there are studies pointing to the possibility of these bilberries inhibiting colon cancer tumor growth. These studies are ongoing but look very positive! * These European berries have a darker flesh almost a red color unlike common blueberries that possess a whitish, translucent flesh. Thus, they likely contain much more anthocyanins than our traditional blueberries. * The flesh has even been used as a dye for clothes and food. * They’re commonly used, like traditional blueberries, in desserts, drinks, syrups, candies etc… * The European blueberry is also a very ornamental bush when properly hedged. The leaves turn a beautiful color in the fall. * The flowers of these plants attract a wide range of pollinators like honey bees and butterflies. We also offer numerous other complementary herbs, vegetables and flowers for the garden. Check out our other items for additional varieties of flowers!
