Does anyone know anything about growing Blueberries?

That's an important point. I don't think anyone has ever claimed
that currants, gooseberries, or raspberries are particularly
ornamental, but blueberries certainly are. In fact, I'd say that
they are handsome enough to be grown solely for ornament.

And while we're at it, let me mention "Cape Cod Blueberry Grunt",
a traditional dish. You can find recipes for this on the net,
though I prefer the one in the tenth edition of the Fannie Farmer
Cookbook (1960). If anyone desperately craves this recipe, email
me privately.
