Buy Krewer Blueberry plants for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Krewer is an early-season rabbiteye blueberry developed by the University of Georgia. It produces exceptionally large, firm berries that become very sweet when allowed to ripen fully. Its vigorous, semi-upright growth suits home gardens, berry rows, and U-pick plantings. smallfruits.org

Plant Details:

  • Plant Type: Fruiting blueberry shrub
  • Botanical Name: Vaccinium virgatum ‘Krewer’
  • Blueberry Type: Rabbiteye
  • Mature Size: Commonly maintained around 6–8 feet tall and 4–6 feet wide; may grow larger without pruning
  • Sun: Full sun
  • USDA Zones: Approximately 7–9
  • Chill Hours: Approximately 350–400 hours
  • Bloom/Harvest: Flowers early for a rabbiteye; early-season harvest varies by location and weather
  • Fruit: Exceptionally large, firm blue berries with a small, dry picking scar
  • Flavor: Very sweet when fully ripe
  • Pollination: Plant a different rabbiteye variety with overlapping bloom for dependable production
  • Soil/Water: Acidic, well-drained soil; keep evenly moist, particularly while establishing and developing fruit
  • Landscape Uses: Home orchards, blueberry hedges, U-pick plantings, farms, and wildlife gardens

Best Pollinator Partners:

  • Titan: The strongest documented partner. University of Georgia recommends Titan and Krewer together.
  • Climax: An early-flowering rabbiteye that may provide useful overlap.
  • Premier: Another possible early-season partner.
  • Alapaha and Austin: Additional rabbiteye options where their flowers overlap with Krewer.

Titan is the first choice when planning a pair. Bloom times can shift with winter temperatures, so the other named options should be treated as possible partners rather than guaranteed matches every year. Do not rely on Southern highbush varieties such as Pearl, Galaxy, Gupton, or Farthing to pollinate Krewer. smallfruits.org

North Florida Growing Note: Krewer’s relatively low chill requirement makes it a promising rabbiteye for the Florida Panhandle, but early flowers may need protection from a late freeze. Let berries turn fully blue before picking for the best sweetness. Plant in full sun with acidic, well-drained soil and mulch the shallow roots with pine bark or pine straw. smallfruits.org
