Storm Nemo dumped a lovely layer of "winter mulch" on my garden, so I am once again living vicariously through gardeners in warmer climes. A friend in California tells me she's been planting berry bushes and she's thinking of trying a blueberry that's a cross between highbush and rabbit eye, that's supposed to do well even without chilling temps.
There really are berries for just about every area and most are seriously easy to grow. Just try and kill a raspberry bush, I dare you. The birds are your biggest foe, but there are ways around that. What I love about berries, besides eating them, is that you don't need huge amounts of space, to grow them.
