Does anybody know what flowers, herbs, other fruit and veg should be grown with or near blueberries as companion plants, to aid, strengthen, protect and support each other?

in my blueberry rasied Box/bed type thing I have got cranberries growing between them as they both like the same conditions and soil type etc, they provide a bit of ground cover for keeping weeds down, and this year I got some lovely cranberries as well.Kernow rag nevra
Some people feel the rain, others just get wet.

It is best not to grow anything with them if you can as they will compete for the nutrients in the soil. You just need to feed them more oftern.
I find that cranberries being a bog plant, like a more wetter ground than blueberrries. Blueberries like water, but not their roots kept in it.Comment
