Fresh blueberries are wonderful treats.
They can be grown in the Kansas City climate but it will take some work to produce a good crop. Blueberries prefer a soil that is high in organic matter, evenly moist and with an acidic pH. Most of our soils do not have these qualities. Blueberries prefer full sun, but here again our definition of full sun is different from that on the coast. Start by properly planning the blueberry patch. Select a site that receives morning or early afternoon sun.
