I grow V. vitis-idaea -- a beautiful plant with tasty fruit. There's some interest in commercializing it in the upper midwest. For more information, I refer you to the chapter on this frui in my book Uncommon Fruits for every Garden (it's in the NAFEX library).

   Does anyone know anything about Bilberry (Vitis-Idaea and/or Vaccinium

uligosum)?  Will either grow at lower elevations?  Does either produce

enough fruit to be worthwhile planting?  How are they for flavor?

Thanks,
