    T&M blueberries

    I just remember I got a T&M voucher from GYO(thank you).I can't spend it online so will have to phone them.Rather than ordering bulk of seeds I thought about getting 1 thing.So...I thought about blueberry.I haven't got a clue about growing them except that they like ericacous compost(sorry for spelling).
    I'm quite far north-does it affect the growth?(wild ones in the forest doing fine here).Which one would be the best?They have Brigitta,Chandler,Earliblue and Top Hat.Any hints and suggestions very welcome

    I have 2 blue crop bushes. They didn't fruit for the first year and the leaves turned red in the autumn and fell off leaving it looking like a dead stick.
    This year I'm over run with flowers and berries so am really looking forward to them ripening.
    The "Bluecrop" variety is self fertile. Some are not so I'd suggest buying 2 different bushes so they cross pollinate? Just an idea.

    Be patient with them and they will reward you.....eventually
    Serene she stand amid the flowers,
    And only count lifes sunny hours,
    For her dull days do not exist,
    Evermore the optimist

        I have four blueberry bushes of differing varities all different ages. my oldest bush is an Earliblue I think and it's in about it's 3rd year. It's covered in developing fruits at the moment so I'm hoeful of a great crop. The others have a few fruits on but they're only babies can't recall the varities.

        I also took some cuttings from my earliblue last year and two of them are about 6 inches tall now
