as we see they have been declared as superfoods , so whats the position
on growing ?

I have seen nothing about superfood - but I do grow Vaccinium corymbosum
otherwise known as blueberry. Bought two bushes about 7 years ago and
they produce about 3-4lbs fruit each year. I have them in an 8inch
raised bed which I annually dress with ericaceous(sp?) compost. I've
experienced few problems with them so far. Leaves turn the most
wonderful red colour in autumn. I'd grow them for that alone.
