Blueberries are both evergreen or the very brightly colored red fall foliage of the deciduous variety which is the one that we use the most for fresh fruit . You only need 2 different varieties--early to mid or mid to late bloom times. A few names to look for are Duke, Elliott, Toro, Northblue, Bluecrop, Chandler and the evergreen variety Sunshine Blue.
