Blueberries in Southern Arizona

Type: Emerald (Arandano Emerald, Vaccinium 'Emerald')

Though the tag said full sun (6+ full hours) I put them in containers in partial shade, under the canopy of a mesquite tree. They like to be mulched and watered thoroughly so I actually set the containers in a shallow basin of water on kept it full at all times. It yielded beautiful large fruit! Has a cold hardiness of 10 to 0 degrees F.

Can you show a picture of the basin and water? Were they always in water? Mosquito issues? When do they set fruit?
