Vaccinium angustifolium is a low spreading deciduous shrub growing 5 to 60 centimetres (2 to 23+1⁄2 in) tall. Its rhizomes can lie dormant up to 100 years, sprouting when given the adequate amount of sunlight, soil moisture, and oxygen content.[citation needed] The leaves are glossy blue-green in summer, turning a variety of reds in the fall. The leaf shape is broad to elliptical, with the buds brownish red in stem axils. The flowers are white or pink, bell-shaped, 4 to 6 millimetres (1⁄8 to 1⁄4 in) long. The fruit is a small sweet dark blue to black berry, full of antioxidants and flavonoids. Several buds may be on a healthy stem, and each bud can open up and have several blossoms. A blueberry field that has full plant coverage can have as many as 150 million blossoms per acre.[citation needed] Chromosome number is 2n = 48.
