I don’t grow blueberries, but I’ve seen videos of high-bush cultivars in the UK, and they certainly looked prolific and easy to manage. From what I’ve heard/read, I imagine that they would do well in poor, acidic, sandy soil like in pine forests. Is that the kind of soil that you have?
You are not the first to answer blackberries, and I just wonder, do blackberries not grow out of control in other places? Sure they’re easy to keep alive once established, but to actually keep them manageable, is there not a lot of pruning required?
(Asian pears are awesome, by the way. The fruit, anyway. Tried it once, and it puts the common pears to shame.)
Spooky due to the blood-stained insides?

Did your tree live fast and die young?
Continuous harvest is the best! We can’t just stop eating when the plants stop fruiting, so having successive fruiting seasons in a year is really helpful. If durian fruited year-round… monoculture would be tempting.
Do you trellis the blackberries or just let them sprawl everywhere?
Yes, that is a bush. What do you like about it?
Two years… If I waited that long, it would be a disaster! Glad it works for you though!
