Default mature blueberrys plants

I have just got my first allotment so some of the space i have in the garden is not free. i have 3 blueberrys in pots on the patio and the biggest produced 3 whole berrys last year! what id like to do is build a raised bed and plant some more as my mum eats blueberrys all the time and id like to be able to grow more for her. what i wandered is if it is possible to buy more mature plants than you can get in garden centres? i realise there will be a cost implication but for the sake of not buying blueberrys from all over the world for part of the year, its worth it.

Hi Leona,

I've seen these people recommended on the Vine - supposed to be very helpful too

I can highly recommend them Leona, their plants are sold at about 2-3 years old and most fruit the next year. My first row came from them.
