What kind of pots are best for growing blueberries?

The best containers for growing blueberries are Smart Pots, which are durable fabric planters that are weather-resistant, UV resistant, and extremely durable.

Smart Pots are great for blueberries because they encourage strong root growth. Have you ever taken a plant out of its pot and found the roots wrapped around and around inside the pot? This happens because the roots aren’t branching properly.

There are several types of blueberries, and they are best suited for different growing regions. Just like when you're growing strawberries, check with your local plant nursery for the types that are best for your area.
