Huckleberries

All are delicious and are rarely available in nurseries. Each is a great edible landscape plant and can fill a niche in your yard. They are in the same family as blueberries, and have much the same requirements. While in the west wild blueberries are called Huckleberries, in the east they are called wild blueberries so our Maine and Michigan wild blueberries are listed under blueberries.
