I am having a hard time finding information about historic blueberry varieties. Any help? Some of the varieties I am looking for: Burlington, Atlantic, Concord, Dixie, Pemberton.

The origins, parentage, and descriptions of all are in The Brooks and Olmo Register of Fruit and Nut Varieties, 3rd Edition.

And if you want to taste them I bet they have them at the germplasm repository in Corvallis. They have an annual tasting (for free).
