On this occasion Bob got it wrong - blueberries do not like boggy soil
- they are heathland plants - they like an organic soil that holds its
moisture. So a mix of 3 peat 2 top soil 1 sharp sand will give
something like the mix. Straight ericacious compost is too peaty and
can rot off the roots as a result.

I don't think I ever said they like boggy soil, I mentioned remaking the
original pond by inserting another liner over the old one but obviously it
wasn't clear, I didn't mean to grow Blueberries in, more like water lilies.
Hate to hear of a garden pond being removed, they are so important for
wildlife these days.
