Xinchang blueberry

Blueberry means blue berries. One is a low shrub, short and wild, with small particles, but high anthocyanin content; The second is artificially cultivated blueberry, which can grow to 240 cm high, with large fruit, more water and relatively low anthocyanin content. Blueberry, a kind of small berry, has blue fruit, beautiful, pleasing to the eye and blue color, and is wrapped by a layer of white fruit powder, with delicate pulp and tiny seeds. The average weight of blueberry fruit is 0.5～2.5g, the maximum weight is 5g, the edible rate is 100%, it is sweet and sour, and it has a pleasant aroma, so it is a good fresh food. Blueberry flowers have ornamental value. Blueberry flowers are racemes. [2] Inflorescences are mostly lateral and sometimes terminal. Flowers solitary or twin in axils of leaves. The flower buds of blueberries usually grow at the top of branches. In spring, flower buds germinate for 3-4 weeks before reaching full bloom. When the flower bud germinates, the leaf bud begins to grow, and it does not germinate and grow to its proper length until the full flowering period. The tree shape and characteristics of blueberry are overgrown with shrubs, and the tree height is very different. The tree height of blueberry with rabbit eyes can reach 10m, and it is often controlled at about 3m in cultivation. The height of high cluster blueberry trees is generally 1-3 m; The height of the semi-high bush blueberry tree is 50-100 ㎝; The bush blueberry tree is 30-50㎝. Blueberry leaves alternate, high-bush, semi-high-bush and short-bush blueberries shed their leaves before winter, the rabbit eyes are evergreen, and the leaves can be kept on the tree for 2-3 years. The size of leaves varies from 0.7-3.5㎝ for dwarf blueberries to 8㎝ for tall blueberries. The most common leaf shape is oval. Most kinds of leaves are covered with fluff on the back, and some kinds of flowers and fruits are also covered with fluff, but there is little fluff on the leaves of dwarf blueberry. Blueberry root system has no root hair and its absorption capacity is small. The roots of blueberry are thin and fibrous, and the diameter of the fine roots before branching is 50-75 microns. Almost all the fine roots of blueberry are parasitized by endophytic mycorrhizal fungi, thus overcoming the difficulty in absorbing water and nutrients caused by the absence of root hairs in blueberry roots. Studies have proved that the parasitism of mycorrhizal fungi is beneficial to blueberry growth.
