....and lmk what y'all think. My fam loves, loves, loves, blueberries, and they are one of the superfoods we've all heard so much about. A 6 oz container goes for about 3 bucks here at the grocery stores.
When we lived in the NE BBs grew wild, we were never at a loss for them.
I have lived in the Mid-West for 8 years now and have tried every possible blueberry bush available for this region but have never had any luck w/them. The BBs for this gardening zone are smaller to begin with than the ones back east, and I have a lot of shade on my property, very few spots for BBs to thrive
The ad states that these puppies will grow in sun or shade, I am skeptical.
So, what say any of y'all seasoned gardeners in the Mid-West?
Shall I risk $10 + shipping for another disappointment?

I think you should give it a try and let me know what you discover!

For $10 *I'd* give it a try.

I would not buy these because the man's voice annoys me greatly.

Also, there is a shipping charge of $8.90. I'd just go to a local nursery or Lowes and buy plants that I can see. In the past, I have ordered various plants by mail and they are barely little tiny sticks that take years to grow.

I'd be skeptical.

I think these kinds of things never turn out the way they say IMHO. I think you are better off finding a good local nursery and getting advice on what is the best to try for your local situation.

Too funny! That's as good a reason as any.

Did you click the link? Tell me he doesn't annoy you.....LOL

Gah! Blueburry Guy's voice annoys me too, and I bet he pronounces 'library' as 'liberry.' I'd skip these, and look for advice at a local nursery.

Now I know I am going senile. I misread this thread this morning. I could not wait to get home and see the link for

BLUEBERRY PANTS

I did not know how they made pants out of blueberries but I couldn't wait to find out.

I would go to a local nursery and ask them about their experience with BB plants. I go to a BB farm to pick berries here in Tennessee and their plants are in the full sun - and, believe me, it is quite hot here in July when they are ripe.

They are the same company that has the topsy turvey tomato thing. I think I would go to your local nursery. I think Lowes and Home Depot guarantees their plants. Good Luck.
