Growing Blueberries

Blueberries like acid, sandy soils with a pH 4.5 to 5.5, good quality water with low sodium and bicarbonates.

Many require cross pollination, make sure you read the tags, plant at least two varieties.

Our North Texas Clay Soils are almost impossible to use to plant blueberries so you might want to stick to container gardening for your blueberries.
