I live in East Texas between DFW and Texarkana off I-30. No one near me (Tyler to Sulphur Springs to Mount Pleasant) has any of these Rabbiteye Blueberry plants for sale.

Does anyone have recommendations for a good source that isn't outrageously expensive? $50 to ship 15 bare roots plus $17 and up per plant doesn't seem reasonable. I'm not looking for a screaming good deal, I don't want to be taken advantage of either. And yes, I expect to pay a premium for the Titan's. I do want quality plants from a reputable source and will pay fair market value plus reasonable shipping.

Any help you can provide is GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Sid

The only place that I could find Titans were 2 retail nurseries outside of Atlanta, and they don't do mail order. I got this info from the company that hybridized Titan. For me, that's a 7 hour round trip drive, so I passed.

Thanks RayRose!

I know it's a new variety but, I would think they would be available mail order somewhere. If not, how do they expect to get any support for this new plant?

I got Titan and Vernon at Angel Oak Nursery in Charleston, SC, not near as far as Atlanta. But they don't ship.
