So I got this idea to plant a couple of our own bushes in the backyard, with hopes that we would have a small crop each year - where the boys could see how the plants bloom, how they produce fruit, how God provides for us.

We bought a blueberry bush and a raspberry bush, and I planted them today in the sunniest spot I could find. I have no idea whether I'll get a crop this year, or whether I'll unintentionally kill these little "treat" plants *sigh* ... but I'm giving it a go.

Plus, our winter deSTROYED my rosemary bushes - such a shame, as I had been loving these 2 bushes for a few years now. So today, I also planted another rosemary bush and a thyme plant as well ... love 'em for cooking.

Here's to a handful of raspberries!

How cool! I can't wait until I can plant some of this kind of stuff in a house of my own.
yay! I may be wrong but I think it can take a year or two for most berry bushes to produce fruit...but they definitely like the sun!
Ohhhhh I so want to plant some blueberry bushes.....I need to do this. Where did you end up purchasing the blueberry bush?
AL ... the blueberry bush looks like it'll have some berries - the raspberry bush, not so much. Maybe?? We'll see ... :-) ... DC, I got them at ARTS on 192nd, but you can get them anywhere. Extra Foods was selling them for about $8 a bush ... I'm sure out in Abby you could get a great deal. good luck!! here's to free food *GRIN*!
