Blueberries are one of those things I want to grow too, but have often been confused as to varieties, etc. My acidic soil is perfect for them and I understand my state of New Jersey is very high in blueberry production (along with cranberries) so I figure I should be able to grow them too. I think I'm going to wait until the local garden center offers the locally grown ones, while they are going to be more expensive to purchase, I know they are grown in this area for sure and the grower is local. I tried those roots you buy at the big box, and I got two sticks in the ground last year that I kept thinking were dead. Not planning to do that again.
