We have excellent wild blueberries here as well. I have tame bushes that are way better than those oversize suckers. I think the blueberry breeders almost screwed up as badly as the strawberry folks. Wild strawberries are absolute dynamite. We're lucky with berries because Danny Wegman's buyers do a particularly good job keeping the right varieties on the shelf.
