Product Overview

The Alapaha Rabbiteye Blueberry is an early‑ripening Southern favorite known for its dependable yields and excellent fruit quality. This variety produces medium to large berries with a sweet, traditional blueberry flavor that makes it ideal for fresh eating or baking. Its early harvest window helps jump‑start the season, making it a valuable addition to any home berry patch.

Alapaha also brings ornamental appeal to the landscape. Soft pink‑white blossoms appear in spring, followed by vibrant red foliage in fall. Its upright, vigorous growth habit performs well in warm climates, especially when paired with another Rabbiteye for cross‑pollination.
