    I have two blueberry bushes I wish to move from a container to the ground. There are no longer any fruit on the plants. When would I move them?
    Thanks in advance

    Anytime is good from a container to ground.

    That's also been our family's experience with blueberries. However, if the container is large enough, you can get very good growth & productivity without replanting into the ground. Some of my dad's trees are in large ceramic containers and the bushes are several feet tall & produce over several kg of big berries every year. I think they are mostly Duke & Bluecrop varieties that I got him years ago.
