3 different blueberries. Domesticated blueberries are 2 to 3 times larger than wild blueberries. The black highbush blueberry are nearly completely black. The wild blueberries are a very dark blue.

   I did manage to collect some black highbush blueberry and wild blueberry for seed saving.

   I saved the black blueberry last year and cold-stratified them outside by just burying the berries in pots and only one came up. This year I’m saving the seeds in the fridge in moist vermiculite to see if it works better.
