 +{{ :garden:about:plants:fruit:blueberries:img_2190.jpg?260|Four blueberry bushes at home weren't doing well in the shade}}We had blueberry bushes at home that had never supplied but a few berries for the squirrels and birds. They were in too much shade to thrive. So I transplanted them to the farm. I began with commercial compost in each mound along with a bit of complete organic fertilizer. While I was at it I bought four more bare root plants to increase production.
