Why did you choose this?

good for my zone, soil, and natural fencing

We have grown them successfully in past years in our location. Large berries.

Because I love blueberries.

We like making are own jams and jellies and eating fresh fruit and the fruit in the stores doesn't last very long after you buy it. It starts to mold so you end up throwing it out and waste money doing it.

Healthy Plant and Packaged Right!
The blueberry came wonderfully packaged with expert care. It has been planted into a larger pot while I wait for soil pH to drop through the winter before it is moved to a raised garden bed. It is a bit early to say as it is becoming dormant now that it is into December, but it has buds set for spring growth which I am looking forward to. I will return to find a few companion plants. Thank you!

This is doing great!!!! I've had goats get out and eat some of it, chickens scratch around/took dust path around it(there's a tomato cage around it), and it's still putting out new growth. No fruit yet

Blueberries!
This blueberry bush and my others are all growing wonderfully! After about three years I am getting a lot of blueberries. They taste great. I took the advice of another grower in the Chicago area. He said he uses a lot of acidic fertilizer. So I do and it all works great.
