Any suggestions for growing Lingonberries in ID, Zone 6b? Picked up some plants that were already climate adapted, using recommended fertilizer. And is that something anyone has had success with in selling cuttings? Thanks!

I think Lingonberries are generally cool climate plants and also acid loving. You may find that they will find your summers a bit hot, depending where in Idaho you are. A wetter or shadier spot may help them thrive. This site seems to have a lot of good information which may be of help.
 
If we don't do the shopping, we won't have anything for dinner. And I've invited this tiny ad:
