I grow rabbiteye blueberries, and I am familiar with these. Where is 
Margaret located?  If she can grow rabbiteyes, I recommend 'Centurion' 
for a rich, sweet, 'jammy' flavor.

The real secret to sweet blueberries though is to leave them as long as 
possible on the bush to ripen and develop sugars. Blueberries will be 
tart if you pick them as soon as they turn blue, in my experience.
