Summer 2010: Have had heaps of fruit but not the best flavour and small. They needed little maintenance. I rotate which ones were allowed to fruit each year. They are still small and fruiting takes a lot of energy. Rotation seems to improve vigor.

I had a different variety a few years ago and grasshoppers demolished it but the Nellie Kellies haven't been touched. I'm either luckier this time or this variety isn't so tastey!

Summer 2011: SO MUCH FRUIT! Fruit was much better quality this year. They obviously take a few years to really establish. Plus I think that they have loved the rain!

Fruiting Months January, November, December

Height 0.5 metres

Growing: In a Pot

Pollination: No

Pest Control:

Some sort of grub likes to spin webs through the flowers and berries at the very tip of the branches. Kills the branch. I just cut them off and throw them away.

Tried growing them in the ground, spot was too shady and they just sat there. Dug them up, potted them, put in much sunnier spot. Growing lots better.

Blueberry - Nellie Kelly (Grafted) ^7/10

Comments: -

EDIT I went away, and pond hadn't been finished, never got any water, so not surprising

Have planted around edge of island in new fish pond that I had excavated. Is not ideal yet (pond not full), but they are doing quite well so far, intermingled with comfrey, and around an old big mulberry on the island. 

Had a little bit of fruit on it from the nursery, looks like it will mostly all ripen happily

Question:

The best and only luck I've had with blueberries.  I've got them both in my hydroponic setup and flowering and fruiting profusely. This variety is a prostrate variety and doing very well thank you very much.
