I may pick one up… even though i have promised not to buy any more blueberry plants. I just propagated some Cara’s Choice… which wasnt that hard to do.

I did a search and i think Just Fruits and Exotics have the best plants for that variety but they are out of stock.

A nursery that ive used before is on Amazon/Ebay called Wekiva/HelloOrganics etc. They sell tissued cultured plants 4 for $24 with free shipping. Ive bought some blackberries and rasps from them and all did fine. Some folks dont like tiny tissue cultured plants though.

Springhigh looks good too… uggg.

I’ve been looking at wekivia but wasn’t sure of them…
Been waiting on just fruits and exotics as well. This just popped up the other so i figured I’d try. May just stick it in the greenhouse and let it grow nonstop for a year or two before letting it go dormant to do the thing

How come they don’t like tissue culture?

Same reason some folks like Fast Growing Trees etc… they think a tiny plant is a ripoff compared to a very large plant or tree… most folks want fruit year 1 anyways… im totally cool with tissue culture myself… gives them time to establish and i can prune/train how i want as they go.

Not sure if you seen this older thread but you may as well join the club.

Good news is they look like sweet crisp, yes a bit expensive but a really hard one to find. At this size they should be ready to fruit in a couple of years and not die. I have bought a few that are half that size and die before their first year. Excellent variety, family favorite, make sure the soil is in the 6 range ph. Good luck!
