Is somebody growing this plant?
Some people call it wild blueberry.

RE: Bilberry (Vaccinium Myrtillus)

I'm not growing that variety. I have two plain thornless blueberry shrubs that I got from Lowe's about three years ago. I have two varieties that I bought over the last two years too. They are Vaccinium myrsinites and Vaccinium Darrowii "Rosa's Blush." I initially bought them because they are shorter evergreen shrubs without knowing they were blueberries. I'll be happy to have more fruit to eat though!

Ollierose, how Vaccinium myrsinites looks? What size is bush?
Did you get any berries from it? Are berries dark inside and stain fingers?
