Re: Blueberries

Zone 10?! Surf's up!
Walt--they love to be fed a mulch of peat moss with compost on top at anytime. Move when dormant--tough where you live but as far away from flowering and fruiting as possible.
Flowering plants nearby will lure in more pollinATORS, but only more blueberry plants will give you more berries on each plant.
Good luck, mike McG

Here in zone 10 in So. Cal., we don't have much
experience with blueberries. The southern highbush
plants seem to be our answer, so far. So,

When should they be fertilized? If I want to
transplant one to a different raised bed, when would
be the best time to do this?

Are there any companion flowers that would help with
pollination? Seems azaleas would be an obvious choice
since they also like lower pH conditions.

Thanks,

Walter
