Cool idea for blueberries if you can't grow them in the ground. I have many, but the very best are several that were native to this property when we bought it.

The one on the left is an indigenous one and the other is one of many that we planted 20 to 25 years ago. The Native is huge with branches thicker than my arm and at least 12 feet high. And it is not the biggest one on the property. Now that we have cleared around it and removed all the smothering vines, it should get even bigger. It is a beautiful plant year round. They make the birds very happy too. Patti
