I have three Tifblue I got last November. They came about 5ft tall already and already gave me about 50 blueberries this year (mostly eaten by birds). I hope for a large enough batch next year to bother protecting them. They are kind stressed with the heat and lack of rain this summer but still don't look too bad.

They look nice Richard. Just out of curiosity how long do you think it'll take for them to reach maturity? Every year I keep saying I'm going to get a couple bushes next year and I never do!
Congrats on such a nice looking order! Deb |

Hi Deb, it is good to hear from you! I estimate that they will be full size in 2.5 years. Hmm ... I might have to tear out one of my rose beds to plant a row of them! The remainder I will sell at the farmers' markets for $5 each in 4-inch pots, then $10 each next year in 2-3 gallon pots.

I thought you need to have two differnt types of blue berry's if you want them to produce a lot of fruit. I currently have three different types Jewl, Bright Well and Fl Native High bush.
This is a low chill type, would you be willing to ship any? |
