    Best of luck

    I'm not sure, but I think they like acid soil...

    Let us know how you get on

    They do like acid soil and it is important to only water them with rainwater and they will benefit from an Ericaceous feed as well, the same that you would give to Camellias, Rhodedendrums etc,regards Steve.

    I have planted my cranberry plants near to my blueberry because I believe they both like acid soil. Should I therefore be feeding the cranberry with the ericaceous feed as well?
