Looking for blueberry guild suggestions

I’m looking for some herbaceous or ground cover plants to go in my blueberry bed. Since the soil there will be acidified, I’m having a hard time finding companions, except for cranberry and lingonberry. Any suggestions? Annual or perennial are both good.

You might look at strawberries of some sort.

I know the "perfect" range is more alkaline than the "perfect" range for blueberries, but my property is a bit acidic and I have wild strawberries and wild blueberries all over.

Blueberry, cranberry, ligonberry are all in the same family so it doesn't exactly fit my specific idea of a guild, for me I would add the usual mint/thyme family, dutch clover, chive/garlic family, I would add some strawberry and mushroom.

I like the idea of strawberries as ground cover for blueberry bushes. You might also try herbs that don't mind some acidity in the soil, such as thyme and basil.

Blueberries...
...need acidic soil, full sunshine, good drainage and room to grow.

Demands that reduces the choices for a guild drastically.

Better make them an open hedgerow because the idea of guild might hide them too much for pollinators.

Usually the harvest of single blueberry plants is poor, especially when there is a bigger choice for the pollinators which a guild obviously provides.
I cannot say that the blueberry honey is only a 2nd choice to the "bee taste buds" but free standing (or in free rows) Blueberry bushes bear way better than hidden ones.

I found out (In Europe and Thailand) guilds are good but they are definitely not a one shoe fits all solution..

This year I took 4 old bathtubs, filled them with branches half way, added soil, 3 varieties of blueberries, and 4 varieties of strawberries.

At least in their first year, they did well and the tiny, 10 inch blueberry bushes happily produced about a cup each! The Strawberries did beautifully - and are still tryinh to ripen their last fruit. From early May until Sept they gave us 1-2 cups a day, at the height of production, a half to full cup daily the rest of the time.

No idea how they will do over time...but they seemed very happy this year.

Is there anything I should do to overwinter them happily? How do I add soil without smothering them, it has receded as the wood, I assume, is decomposing.  Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.

This fall, I placed 4 raised beds beside my pond, which has naturally acidic soil. In the bottom of the bed I placed pine logs and branches that had been cut down three years ago for a construction project. I covered the logs with native soil, then topped off with a mixture of coco coir and perlite.

I planted two Highbush blueberry bushes in each bed, one Blueray and one Bluecrop. In the middle of the bed I put 4 root crown cuttings of Russian bocking 14 Comfrey, and surrounded the edges with German extra hardy garlic cloves.

In the spring, I will add a variety of herb seeds I ordered and strawberries to the beds.

We have a lot of wildlife pressure, deer included, so during the fruiting season, netting will go over hoops added to the beds to protect the berries. The garlic is to also deter critters.

I mulched around the blueberries with peanut gravel left over from another project, and added straw over the rest of the bed. Then, I topped the straw with clipped boughs of pine from succession trees growing in my meadow that I really don’t want in those spots.

In the photo, you can see the two blueberry bushes, zoom in for the four comfrey cuttings, and observe the garlic before they were buried in the ground. I did put a handful of mushroom compost in each garlic and comfrey hole.

The area before planting was a wild meadow. I placed cardboard over the area where I put the raised beds and around the beds, and created a cardboard path fit access. The rest of the meadow remained wild, so the wildflowers could help attract pollinators.
