Maqui Berry ^8/10

Comments: -

Growing like crazy, already pruned twice so I could fit it under a temporary shadecloth set up on a few of the hottest days of Summer. This tree is well watered, fertilised monthly ( though I doubt it needs it ) and is growing in east facing bed along with avoc, white sapote and tree dahlia. Looks like it has been there for years!..Also, I painted the trunk and branches as they were getting burnt.

Blueberry - Sharpblue ^2/10

Comments: -

Unusual and extreme heatwave last year caused stress on plant. Even after moving into shaded protected area and lots of TLC, blueberry still died.

Blueberry - Sunshine Blue (Seedling) ^8/10

Comments: - Thought I would have a few varieties of Blueberries, so I added this one. It looks lovely and healthy. I;m growing mine in pots but John Hartley says that they are a great plant for Edible Landscaping - that is a fast growing trend these days - because they have blue-green foliage for most of the year with shades of puple during the colder months followed by pink flowers in Spring. They can grow large crops of berries on a relatively short 150 chilling hours.

Blueberry Burst ^8/10

Comments: - I just love my new Blueberry plants. I bought 2 Blueberry Burst from Bunnings before I went interstate for a few days - I could not wait!  When I heard they are evergreen and bred for Australian gardeners, I just had to try them. Deciding at prsesent which variety I will choose next. My BB is loaded with flowers, and I don't want to take them off - we should do that for the strength of the plant. I may leave berries on one of them and compare the plants. Not sure if I will use different potting mix for each. They will be growing in Pots.

Question: Would you recommend trying Peatmoss and Garden Sand for one of these plants if I want to venture? Peatmoss for acid and moisture and Sand for draining. Blueberry likes moisure but not wet feet and I'm planting them in Pots. 

Cape Gooseberry

An unusual tasting fruit in a cute package. I tried one on the plant in Bunnings and thought it might be interesting for the kids.
