The blueberry growth cycle begins with flowering.

GROWTH CYCLE

From flowering to harvest

Blueberries move through a natural cycle of flowering, fruit development, ripening and harvest. At our Kotagiri farm, the plants are observed through each stage of their growth cycle.

Cultivated in the cool mountain climate of Kotagiri, our crops advance through five distinct growth stages under disciplined agronomic supervision. Precision irrigation and natural Nilgiri conditions nurture the bushes from winter bud break through to selective hand harvesting between October and December, ensuring consistent fruit quality across every plot.
