TRIED BUT DIED
Blueberry - Sharpblue (Seedling)Julie1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 4109 days 3hrs Comments: - Difficulty keeping the water up to them during summer in pots, so I planted them in the ground but died the next season anyway. The Misty's which I kept in pots but moved into the shade are still doing very well. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report * You need your own My Edibles Page to contribute Quick & Easy |
