For some strange reason, these "patio blueberries" keep tempting me. Possibly the fact that they don't need another variety for pollination is a big factor; however, I know that in my zone I'd have to bring them in for the Winter if I kept them in pots.

Does anybody have any experience with these plants? Any information from someone who's tried them would be very helpful.

last spring I got a 3pack from Gurneys. they are still small. in fact, 1 plant has disappeared.
they are lil green bushy things -- but very small (if you'd like to see a pic, i can take one for you)

I've heard that blueberries take years (5yrs??) to fully develop -- and only being at yr 2, i'm quite disappointed in myself for not researching before hand.

I know it's not much, but that's my experience.

I started one last spring, got very few blueberries the first year - and they were SOU-ERRRRRRRRR! pucker up!

This year the plant is larger and loaded with blooms, so I'm assuming I'll get more blueberries this year and hopefully not so sour : ) - the bees really love the blooms.
