Which is the best blueberry for growing in a container?

Our Advice:

Most blueberries are grown in containers because they need ericaceous conditions and few garden soils are suitable. 'Chandler' would be a good choice and, if you have limited space, the variety 'Herbert' is a compact grower with a good flavour. If you can grow two varieties, they will pollinate each other so you get a better crop.
