Both Rabbiteye and Highbush have varieties selected from the wild, but mostGreat info, Richard - I agree on all counts
are bred and the seedlings selected for commercial release. Why do you want
the 'wild' blueberries? If it's for dietary antioxidants, I suggest you go
with rabbiteye over Southern Highbush types, and that you go with the
smallest fruit size possible.
You can increase your antioxidant levels per cup of berries, over 10 fold,
by choosing small over large fruit. (Antioxidants concentrated in the
skin.)
This time of year, the rabbiteye leaf color beats highbush handsdown!
