| Can someone tell me of a source to buy, your experience, what you did to amend the soil and fertilizer. I plan to plant this in a raised bed area around my deck. |

| I think I got mine at park seed a year ago. Four seasons nursey also has them in their spring catalog and they are on QVC's website. I like them. Mine is still very short. I got a few berries last year and they tasted good. I put mine in a pot because there was no way I was going to get my sandy soil to turn into acidic organic compost. |

| I appreciate your feedback. I am sure I will invest in some. I will have to amend the soil some with peat. I just wanted to be sure they were worth it and tasted good to! It would seem Park hasn't the best feedback at Garden Watchdog, I have found a few other sources online now. Took a lot of time and research however. |

| Good luck. I don't think they are that hard to grow once you get the soil right. Most people in the South seem to like these for their compact size and low chill hours. Here in Florida chill hour requirements are a big factor. They didn't have any insect or disease problems last year. |
