Does this type of blueberry (Half-high Highbush Northland) have a nice red fall foliage? I'm considering getting this but would really want to make sure I'm getting one with fall foliage...

sundaisy,

Yes, they do but be sure to plant more than 1 variety for better production.

BTW, most blueberry leaves turn red in the fall. ☺

thanks - I ordered 2 of this type from Jung which are to arrive next month... When you say "variety," do you mean I should get another type of blueberry other than the Northland? (I think I know the answer to this, but I am a really new and still learning gardener and want to make sure I get it right...) (Is that why Jung have a few combo offers with different types of blueberries?)

sundaisy - Yes, you should get Bluecrop or Blueray or any other variety to cross-pollinate. Most blueberries are self pollinating but do better if planted with other varieties.
