Question loganberry and blueberry

huby took me to garden centre for some inspiration for decking plants. we ended up purchasing 2 pots(large/medium) from a sale and a loganberry, blueberry plants. not sure what to do with either so they are placed in the purchased pots and placed on the decking corners. anyone any help in waht to do when they get bigger i.e. can they be trained to shape or kept to a reasonable size.

Never grown a blueberry - but i think they need they erriconous compost.

Loganbery can be grown in the soil -ours likes to spread its wings! We put some wires up to hold the side shoots up and this way you can train it.

help plz

is my loganberry dying. it has started to go brown on the leaves and lk like its dying as the leaves are also very brittle/dry. anyone any suggestions in how to save it.

its growing in normal compost and in a tub on the decking in full sun. i keep it well watered as my garden is a sun trap(sun up to sun down). i have also put some small stones on the soil to retain the moisture it gets fed with a general fertiliser
