Bear creek-- yes it is long gone but they
had some really good varieties which many of us still have. Idell From:
nafex-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:nafex-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Amelia Hayner I thought Bear Creek shut down. The name isn't really the thing, it's the fruit. yeah,the bush was taller and thinner as it went along, and I should
have thinned it out, but just didn't have the heart. Maybe I should just concentrate on getting good blueberries... there is
a large blueberry nursery not too far from here-- Finch's-- I think they do a lot of business wholesale? they told me they had some over size bushes that they would sell, if we
came in a pickup. just have to get the right kinds-- do you know I tried to contact all the ag agencies here, to ask about
what varieties were most popular in U-Pick places.. and none of them responded
to me, not a one.

and it is very productive for me. However, the Timm and Success from Bear Creek
is even more productive since they are very low thin bushes. Jennybelle
is a taller thinner bush with berries more spread out on the stems. Idell Zone 9 From: nafex-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:nafex-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org]

rabbiteye for 31 years now, still picking from the same bushes. They are
not so fussy about soil acidity and water (although they do need both).
They bloomm a little later and not so subject to frosts and with two varieties,
Climax and Tifblue, we pick from the end of June till the first week of
Sept. Very productive. 3-4 tons from 500+ plants. We love
them for pick our own, freezing, winemaking, and fresh sales. We
installed irrigation to avoid bursting fruit which occurs if there is a dry spell
and then heavy rain. Hector Black, zone 6 middle tn
