I live in Toronto, On... I am looking for WILD blueberry bushes...does anyone know where they sell them? I can´t find much variety around my area of residence...usually half dead tiny blueberry plants called; northsky, bluecrop, blueray are what´s being sold at home depot e.t.c. I heard WILD blueberries are superior to their counterparts...
I tried growing some wild blueberry bushes that I dug up from the forest. Those plants had very tasty fruit in the wild, but they grew very slowly and produced no usable fruit in my garden. The domesticated plants that I've been growing in the same area do much better. Perhaps you will have better luck with wild plants from Ontario; but, with my limited experience, I recommend picking wild blueberries rather than trying to grow them.
Do you know of any forest in southern ontario that has wild blueberries? My grandfather did something similar with digging up wild olive trees from mountains around the village he grew up in. He planted these trees in his farm, watered them the first few summers and grafted them over to olive oil producing trees.
