Blueberries

This year in addition to cherry tomatoes we are also growing blueberries.  I did a little research, and found an article on growing blueberries from A&M.  Anytime I can use an aggie example it's easier to get Kevin on board with my ideas.

It will be 2-3 years before we can expect good berry production, I'm keeping my fingers crossed I can keep the plants alive that long.  Our lime tree has hit the three year mark, but we've nearly killed it once or twice.  Gardening is not one of my natural gifts.  

We planted 3 different varieties of blueberry for cross-pollination.  Right now we have all three in a half-barrel.  I'm excited to see them budding now and can't wait to see how they do this year.
