The wild blueberry Vaccinium myrtillus grows on very small shrubs, about 50 cm high, in the light undergrowth with acidic soil. The plant is native to North America.

The shrub can reach 2.50 m in height and gives fruits bigger than wild blueberries. Blueberry bushes need specific growing conditions to grow. In fact, excessive wind, dryness and alkalinity in the soil can damage and weaken the crop.

Cultivating blueberry bushes under plastic greenhouse (tunnel type) with climate control technology and a proper soil or substrate promotes higher yield and quality.
