Did you know that there are varieties of blueberries and raspberries [and maybe some other 'cool weather' berries that I haven't yet learned about] that grow in the 'tropics' [or, at least, in Hawaii]??!! I learned about them approximately two to three years ago. Now we have two varieties of tropical blueberries growing; one looks like a regular blueberry and one looks very different and has a skin that you peel away to eat the fruit inside. I've had pretty good luck with the two tropical blueberry varieties [actually producing fruit], but not as much [at least not yet] with the raspberries. I'm still working on the raspberries - planing them in different places and trying different soil amendments and different water amounts with them. But, it really 'tripped me out' when I learned that these tropical berries actually exist [someone has been hard at work playing around with these typically cool-weather plants - thank you whoever you are!] and that they actually produce berries! What a great thing, to grow our own berries in Hawaii!! :)
