Blueberries are here!
Two of my blueberries arrived today! The bigger ones. I'm SO excited, and nervous. Highly prized blueberries that I have been waiting for forever, the main cornerstone of the south side gardens, and I have never planted bare root plants before. I am so afraid I'll kill them somehow! It is poor timing for them to arrive as we've had a week straight of soggy wet rain; and now we're heading into another week of rain and cold temperatures. That means I'm not able to get out and build their raised bed for a while, and I'm worried sick about them staying in their packing material for another week. I can't even heel them in with all this rain. For now they are in the garage, cool and dark, with damp soil around the roots covered by damp shredded newspaper. Fingers crossed.
