Bill go for a container type blueberry like tophat.  Much easier to make a
container soil acid than to keep a section of yard acid.

*Normally I'm fussier.  This year i'm broke, and behind with fruit planting. 
I always seem to miss the bareroot.  they are such deals, i just decided to
copy the  neighbors a little, who have good luck.  So I'm going for careful
choices, but within what is READILY available...

BUT, I'll look tophat up... to check it out.  Thanks.

In a container, I might have to set a mister or dripper.  maybe will anyway. 
Wonder how the roots respond to transplanting if I pot it for a year or two. 
A few plants just hate it.

I do have some 20+ gal huge plastic terra cottas I usually use fior tomatos. 
was going to plant BB's by a gravel drain, an earlier owner put around the
house for drainage.

What I know about these two BB's, is from Ortho.  Any comments on them?

>>These are going SO FAST, that in a week you'll miss
out on 1/3 of what is available in my area.  Maybe yours too.

Red raspberries, *3/pk
Baba-Red Raspberry
Bosenberry
Blueberry, Jersey
Blueberry, Blue Crop
Cherry Bush *2/pak
Perlette Grape *2/pak
Cherry tree, Montmorency
Apricot Tree, Moorpark
Rhubarb, Red

Most were $3.50.
Trees were $11.
$57 total.
*(These appear intertwined, but listed as 2-3.
It's a 2 season/everbearing, a direction I tend toward.
The Apricot is similar.  "Uneven ripening" it's called.
Not a ton of crop all at once, which is better for comercial.

May get a Santa Rosa Plum, another apple.
Who can get me a mulberry start? LOL!

The blueberries will be interesting.  Hate to buy peat for
the soil, but how else to get a 5.0 acid?  Sulfur?
Plus Gypsum to buffer and aid drainage?  Hmmm.
