Blueberry bushes - I have questions.

[BroccoliSpears]

Is it true that I need two or they won't fruit?

Is it true that they won't fruit until the third year?

I have a lovely big pot on my patio that is crying out for a pretty blueberry bush. Dd loves blueberries.

Tell me about your heavy fruiting, blueberry bush success!

Thanks Mouse.

Wow...I am now so tempted to grow blueberries. We love them in our house and I was intending on getting my veg growing up to scratch this year, but after all that top advice from BBMouse I am keen to get started (the cost of them in the shops is also motivation).

Can anyone recommend a good website to buy from or shall I go to the local garden centre?

Oh...and how big is a 'big pot'?

[Mung]

Went to my local garden centre today and bought two lovely plants with lots of shoots on them. They are all potted up now and I just need to remember to water them and protect them and 'tuck them in' at night.
