sternus1 says... well, I'll ay this: I've really changed my mind on the blueberry burst. This is a fantastic cv. I let the berries ripen on the bush longer than usual, and they are fantastic. Incredibly abundant, and can handle the heat and crop well in it. Won't be buying other varieties from hereon out. They're that good. You're about an hour from my place Glen.

Julie W says... sternus, so if you buy more BB, how will that affect pollination? I'm still a little confused about this. I thought you needed another variety? I have one each of Blueberry Burst, Misty and Sharpe Blue. All flowering and fruiting now. From what you say (haven't tasted fruit yet) it may be worth getting another BB later on. | About the Author Julie Roleystone WA 4th September 2014 7:08pm #UserID: 182 Posts: 103 View All Julie's Edible Fruit Trees |

A.C says... I have 2 BB plants and 1 Nelly Kelly.The BB are fruiting now quite heavily are much bigger than the other type.I have been growing them in a potting mix quite different to whats specified .I have had all the plants for about 18 months.The only downside is all the blueberry plants are vulnerable to what looks like cabbage moth (green worms) attack and have to check under the leaves daily and squash the worms.Looking at the photo your plant has had an attack from something.The worms will start eating the fruit if you dont get them under control.Look out for worms that have become pupate. They will do this under the leaves with this white web like thread around them .Squash them or more worms will come. | About the Author AC1 Cowandilla S.A 6th September 2014 2:07pm #UserID: 8055 Posts: 103 View All AC1's Edible Fruit Trees |

Markmelb says... Interesting to see how everyone is going round the country with their BBs - here is a pic of a friends BB which is in a warmer spot I think than mine in a more open area. Our Nellie Kellies are quite loaded too - friend with set fruit and mine loaded with setting flowers :)
