Blueberries
« on: May 27, 2008, 12:21:39 PM »
On my way home from Chelsea, we stopped over in Harrogate. We had 2 hours in the morning to walk around the city. What a beautiful place!

Anyway, I found this plant stall, and bought a nice Blueberry. My wife likes the fruit, and I like everything she bakes  ;)
It had a few strong stems and was in flower. 

The label says Blueberry General.
I did a quick surf but dont see it listed.

I'm reading up (surfing) to find how to grow it.
Heres a good link:

and heres a few cultivars:

Has anyone any advice about growing Blueberries in the UK?
The label says its self fertile, buit does best planted in twos or more.
