How do you take care of a Blue Berry plant/flower?
I have blueberries growing in pots. The planting medium is extremely important. Using 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 pathway bark and 1/3 potting soil is what I use along with a handful of azalea food. Each morning I pour whatever coffee is left in my pot -- as well as the grounds. My biggest problem is keeping the birds away. You probably need to change the pH in your soil. The roots also are very shallow, so you need to keep your soil moist. Deep watering doesn't do the trick. Just water often and every six weeks throw a handful of azalea/rhodedendron food.
Reply:Well, I'm sorry but I don't know the zone areas that plants can or can not grow well in. If I want to grow a certain plant, I do. I have two Blueberry Bushes growing in big plastic flower pots, out by the swimming pool. They get so many Berry's, I have to give them away. I live in Southern California, you know, where Blue Berries can't grow. I guess someone forgot to tell them where they are. They like Acid soil. And lots of Mulch. When you plant them, put in about 1/3 Azalea potting mix,(if growing in a pot) Sprinkle some Iron Celate on top of the Azalea mix. then put in some Nitro Humus , put the plant in, and fill the rest with lots of mulch. Berries form on new shoots,so you need to trim the old ones off in the fall. Keep them moist but not wet. Watch out for Blue Jay birds, they love to eat them! Byee
Reply:I've listed 3 sources for you to read through. Even though the Internet has done amazing things for accessability of information, I still like to curl up with my magazines and catalogs. I think you'll find your answer in their articles.
Reply:The basics are moist acidic soil , high in organic matter, and at least 3/4 sun. Also you must have enough chill-hours for that cultivar . That's # of hrs %26lt;45F over the course of winter. The required # varies with variety . It will also help if you have at least two compatible varieties for pollination . Some are fine with self-pollination , but not all .
Reply:If you are talking about a Vaccinium cultivar it is a shrub.. it needs to planted in full sun and likes and acid enviroment I usually add a little sulfur when planting and give it an acid fertilizer if you don't mind chemical fertilizers Miracid will work fine if you are like me and want organic blueberry's, I top dress with cotton seed meal , manure and potash then mulch with sawdust. The plant is good to zone 3 and you will get more berry's if you plant more then one type.The smaller bushes have a more wild taste like a huckleberry, the high bush blueberry will have a much bigger and sweeter berry
