Yeah, blackberries grow wild down here. We have an improved variety that gets bigger, is less tart, and has more flavor than the wild ones. We have tried growing rabbit-eye blueberries repeatedly down here and have had absolutely no success. We have tried everything recommended, including increasing the acidity of the soil, all to no avail. We have had modest success with strawberries.
