I have some white cedar foundation plantings that are getting overgrown. I am thinking of removing them, and wondering what to replace them with. It would be fun to put in something that fruits. . . I am contemplating blueberries.

I am in zone 6. The location is on the south side of my house, but it's mostly shaded by oak trees, so I don't actually expect to get much fruit. I need something tall and narrow: Mature width should be less than 4', and height could be 15' or so, and should be at least twice the width for esthetic reasons.

Anyone have suggestions in a tall, narrow, northern blueberry? Preferably one with good fall color and red winter twigs?

Any other fruity suggestions?

Thanks,
Ginda
